Well they have arrived! The first batch are being packed and shipped to the orders received so far.

These came out very nice and have 16" of wire to allow ease of integration to an existing harness. They have the molded rubber seal as original and the correct wire I.D. stripes.

Working on a new supply of the alternators and possibly a repro of the correct pulley/fan unit!

You would pretty much be my hero. I was resigned to the fact I was going to have to run the smaller pulley version, so I would certainly be in if you were able to repro the fan/pulley setup. I'm getting ready to refurb these guys here soon.


BTW: Notice how the one on the right has a rounded case? Any ideas where that came from?

The rounded front case is correct. The later "squared-edge" case is from a 65 up unit and will interchange so often found on rebuilts. The rear cases will not interchange as the brush system is different.

We are looking at a correct pulley repop. These would be used on Cobras and 427 Galaxies/Mercury's. Would they sell if the cost $79-99.00? The cost of tooling and the small volume will limit the market and require amortization over a much smaller sales base than say a repop part for a Mustang.

Nice. How about all the short wire looms Ford supplied? I know it would help some original car owners out if new pieces were available.

Be aware that the common 427 Mercury and Ford sheave and fan assembly and the common original Cobra sheave and fan assemblies are somewhat different. The differences are believed to be only because different subcontractors made the parts and did the final assemblies. I have seen reproductions with mixtures of Ford and Cobra details.
