It is denso . I was talking to a friend of mine (lives in florida ) he said he had a little alternator on the circle track race engine sitting in his garage . He boxed it up and sent it, best price free. I really wanted a 3 ribbed belt ,but finding a combo I would be happy with proved difficult .I wanted it overdriven ,the poorboy kit at the time had the same size pulley's engine and alternator . Engine pulley sourced from ebay ,no idea of the application. even overdriven voltage can fall below charging rate below 1100 rpms . Above that it will happily charge above 13 to 14.2 volts.
