davecara Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 How do the slabby ones differ from the Slingshot ones? I’ve got 4 sat here and none of them will fit the slabby. Quote Link to comment
manden Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 (edited) I've got a slingshot alternator on my slabby 11. Works fine. Better vented too. Edited September 5, 2021 by manden Quote Link to comment

Did you have to change the gear on it at all? This is a 750 engine btw, dunno if they’re different Quote Link to comment
wraith Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 I was if the understanding the all the oil cooled ones will swap, the two main difference between them are the gears which you can swap and how the wires connect, ever wires from the alternator or wires to it. Quote Link to comment
davecara Posted September 5, 2021 Author Share Posted September 5, 2021 There is a good chance I’m being a spaz here but; I bolted up a slingy alt to my slab, and with the alt bolted up proper, the gears wouldn’t engage with each other. Almost like the nose was too short on the alt. I’ll check it out again tomorrow Quote Link to comment
TonyGee Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 you have to find the right alt gear to match the clutch gear, but be careful as its easy to snap a gear if they are not lined up right. Quote Link to comment
manden Posted September 6, 2021 Share Posted September 6, 2021 The one I took out wasn't the original one I found out on the 26tooth cunt. The one I bolted in was from an 89 k model with 28 teeth. There is a post about it here a few months old with pictures Quote Link to comment
