Hi  Bob,

Just to clarify - for any newbie reading - you have swapped the  Corvair 
front housing, and fan/pulley onto the higher output alternator,  right?  
It 
is important to use the correct fan.

Another, semi-ignorant question. Is the rotating portion of the alternator  
- the shaft/rotor - any heavier in the larger amp models - like the 47, 55 
and  63 amp units, than in the standard Corvair 37 amp alternator? I am  
thinking rotating weight here. I know there are smaller alternators in the  
aftermarket.
