8MR 90Amp Prestolite Alternator Upgrade

There are great tutorials on-line about upgrading alternator small marine diesel to a 8MR2069 (90Amp) made by Prestolite.

Well, I did this upgrade and it is working just great.

I initially bought two 8MR2069... I am selling the spare alternator which I used for a few hours to make sure it was working fine... it has maybe 50 hours of run time.

It comes with External Regulator Kit mounted on its back and a new / unused Adjustable Regulator if you don't have a Smart Regulator to drive the alternator.

Asking $250 (shipping not included)

Please note :The pulley shown on picture is not included...standard pulley are not expensive and easy to find.
