Alternator Numbers
I am trying to identify the origin of the alternator in my '67 L79 4 speed Convertible. The numbers on the alternator are:
1100774 55A date code is 6K4
Any ideas where this thing came from?
Thanks in advance, Mark

Wayne,
Can you decipher the date code since it is a different format from what we usually see in Corvette date codes for alternators?

JohnZ,
From reading Alvin Colvin's book I would have expected the date code to be 6 K 04 for an October 4 1966 alternator, rather than 6 K 4.
Are you saying they dropped the 0 in the single digit days of the month?
Thanks,
Kurt
