I just run a standard Vit alternator to match the engine.

I ran the 1.3 alternator as it matched the plug

mine has the round plug with the ribbed belt. i think its 50 amp. i think the part number is LRB00125. these are about £135. do you know anywhere i can get it cheaper or a second hand one?

Just to add, I would recommend using the alternator with the internal fan, kinda like this

The external fan seems to pick up water and spray it everywhere

1.3 or 1.6 either one will work apparently
