Our Alternators

Fifth Avenue Antique Auto Parts located in Clay Center, Kansas originally introduced their 6-volt alternator in 1987. Since that time it has proven to be reliable in a number of different applications, including the Great American Race.

 

Fifth Avenue's 6-volt alternator has an output of (60) amps, (7.5) volts, which is 60% greater than the original equipment style generator systems. In addition, the alternator has a solid state regulator built inside of the alternator. Owners of this new 6-Volt Alternator report easier starting, brighter headlights, and the end of dead batteries.
