Kubota alternator on or about Sept. 11th. about 3 inches

Alan:

Yes, I don't have a whole lot of power out of the 12.5 cubic inch Hvid I 
built.  I figure I should be able to make 10-15 amps at full engine output. 
You can see the engine on my website below.

I'll design my regulator so I have an output current adjustment.  That way, 
I can set the max. load so the engine can just barely pull it.  The battery 
will supply the peak power required over that the alternator can supply.

I may just go to Pick-A-Part and find something that looks likely.

THEN, I have to find a motor of about 1/4 HP.
