Re: Japanese Alternator for 68-70 1600 & 2000
Would I be able to change location of alternator. Right not it s on carb side and a bitch to remove. I had to remove radiator to get it out. Seems like there’s a ton of room on other side. Will the same brackets sent with these alternators fit this option? Please email me at elitedevinc@aol.com

Thank you, yes, we have used that alternator on the right side, but we typically use others just due to better fit. Several right hand options available:
Self regulated:

Lower cost (requires oem regulator):

All these look,work, and fit great, with properly machined components. All these are complete mounting kits with alternator included.

Re: Japanese Alternator for 68-70 1600 & 2000
JT, what belt are you using for the datsun 2000 with alternator on the driver side? Went to Napa and got one that I though would work but it was slightly too small and went with the next size up and it was too big.
