Denso mini alt.

I am thinking about doing a 6v-12v conversion. What are the thoughts about using the Denso? Looks easy to do and seems like a good way to go. Positive and negative thoughts appreciated. Thanks

They are VERY good alternators.

IF you can find a pulley that will match your belt and the alternator has enough capacity for what you are doing what could the downside be?

Have no experience, but have seen on Da MeTube where
guys like to use them because they tuck into tight
spaces, especially behind louvers on those models.
Downside seems to be price and mounting.

I put one on my Farmall H last year, and just received another one in the mail to put on my log splitter that has a two cyl wisconsin. No problems on the H, used it mostly for tractor drives and moving snow.

The Denso fits within the Allis G engine covers. The connector and wiring is different than the common Delco.
I ordered mine from DB Electrical as AND0564. I called them to be sure it had the wide pulley. Some sources send alternators and then tell you to change the pulley if necessary.
The light connection is optional. I used a 12 Volt (internal resistor) coil instead of adding an ignition resistor.

I have Denso alternators on all of my 12v conversions. They are small and will fit nicely under the hoods of my Farmalls. Nothing worse than some one installing a Delco 10si and cutting away the hood to make it fit. As stated, make sure you read the fine print for the pulley size. Two other things I have found when ordering is the output and the self energizing. I look for low output, like 30 to 35amps. That way I can use the stock amp meter. Also read the fine print carefully for the self energizing feature. I ordered one that needed excitation voltage by mistake because I didn't read the description.

Jack would you mind telling me exactly what you ordered and who from? There is just so much out there. Thanks

Remember, you will also need the plug that connects to the back in order to
make your electrical connections.

I ordered one of the Denso one wire alternators (described as 1 wire) from one of the popular online sales sites. Alternator fit nicely on the 77 Oliver, but had to add an energize wire to make it charge.
Not a real problem, just added a wire from the switched side of the coil to the I terminal of the alternator, using a push on terminal. Works perfect, would do it again. I only paid around 70.00 for the
alternator, with free shipping.
