RE: JPOR: home made on board welders

[Dave Jacobs <DJacobs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have a 110amp alternator from a late '80's Continental that came with a
5.0L engine.  Lots of whistles and bells in that car! The case is bigger
than a standard alternator.

			There is a nice write up at Pirates of the Rubicon
website 
		(http://pirate4x4.com/index2.html ) about making your own on
board 
		welder using a Ford Alternator.    The Ford is desirable
since it has 
		an external voltage regulator.   Any one know what Ford
vehicle would 
		have a higher amp alternater  (like 105 amps).    JC Whitney
has kits 
		to convert lower  amp Ford alternators to 105 A for about
$40.    Any 
		one know it these are any good?

		Thanks
