That is a Motocraft (Ford) "3G" case internally regulated alternator. I've had it rebuilt to produce 200 amps at 1600rpm. I'll get a true reading of the output once I got it on the test stand.Brut67, what alternator is that?
I was thinking it was a 3G but wasn't sure. Is it the Taurus style, Mustang style or other?That is a Motocraft (Ford) "3G" case internally regulated alternator. I've had it rebuilt to produce 200 amps at 1600rpm. I'll get a true reading of the output once I got it on the test stand.
Yours looks exactly like mine. I bored out the hole to accept 3" thinwall aluminum, and tigged it in place. I needed it bigger for the 3" piping required by the powerstroke intercooler.Here is another solution using 3" tube, no aftercooler.
Think of it this way. Try blowing in a paper towel tube. OK, now try blowing in a megaphone. There about the same size where your mouth would be, but Which one is easier to blow in???you guys have some really nice engines nice clean work. is there a benifit making the intake tube bigger if the turbo outlet is smaller.

Yes, a little bit, but it usually isn't very noticeable unless it is a fast acceleration type application, like a drag car.Would larger intercooler and intake piping increase "turbo lag"? I'm thinking the increased volume of the larger intercooler and intake piping will take longer to pressurize. Thus, a delay before the engine will see increased boost and air flow.
That doesn't work
