Room for alternator
Anyone got any pickies of a std alternator fitted to a pinto in a book chassis?
I've now got a hole in my head where I have been scratching it trying to figure a way of fitting it!

I had this problem and If its any help, and perhaps another alternative:-....
I ended up using an alty from a Diahatsu Hijet van. Its about half the size ( and weight) of the pinto unit, puts out about 40A and fits snug high
up under the manifold. You'll still need to fabricate a bracket though
