    CORRECT ALTERNATOR 4 A M1008?..

    you can take the std 100 amp alt and have the local gen/start guy isolate the ground to a stud and then it is compatible with both positions on the CUCV. Remember that these are 12 volt units and attach the wires to run them in series for 24 volts... The manuals have wiring diagrams.. RAM...
