Datsun Roadster Forum-311s.org

Maybe we can gather info in one spot because I can't find anything in archives or Wiki.
Anyone done this? I know you need the smog bracket, got that. Any mods on it needed?
Which adjusting bracket, does stock work?
Does the stock triangle work?
Long bolt for lower mount seems to be M10 or 3/8-16. Any other choices?
Shorter belt was mentioned, any part no on the V belt?
Any pics appreciated.
Thx
Linda

I haven't seen much a out the Justy alty on other than SR20.
I think much will depend on your setup. I'd start with the factory alty mount and triangle. Set the alty in l
Place and eyeball for belt alignment.
At that point you can approximate spacer sizing and get within a washer or two of aligning the belt.
I drilled my mount to take a 10mm bolt and used the factory tensioning arm on the 2000 with Denso.
My cars both have the wa spacer removed and use electric fand so may not represent you setup.

Good info in that the 10 mm bolt seemed to fit better when I checked, but not as many choices for length...but maybe I won't need it. Can you guess on the approx length of bolt ultimately used?
On triangle, a pic of that if possible, so I know where to start with initial alignment.

Just thought I would say I worked at Volvo in the late 80s
85 and up 240s'740s. alternators had a brush pack unit with the regulator built in that was small . it was a 2min. Swap out the back
One of those alt. Could be adapted to a 311 or the brush pack installed on a datsun alt with a bit of machining

Linda,
Be sure to remove the original voltage regulator under the hood.

I'm pretty picture challenged Linda. Between my Pixel phone and Samsung tablet I struggle to post pictures. I'm at the coast fow a few days but will give it a try later this week.

Gonna stick to this alt at this point. No Z, GM or anything else,but good info. Focused only on this as everything takes too long as it is with my car and me.
I have the alt, plug, now figuring out HOW.
Planning on no ext VR , Greg, since it is IR but not there yet.
