As far as I know the only difference is the amps output. How many do you need? Mine gives 36 amps. I think it's a 17 Acr, but I'm not sure. Cheers, Dave. First Triumph: 200cc Tiger Cub. Followed by in no particular order, 350 and 500 Royal Enfield Bullet, Herald 1200, Herald 13/60, Mini 1275 GT, Vitesse 2L convertible, Audi 80, Audi 80 Sport, Fiat 124 Sport Coupe, Triumph 2000, Mk 2 Estate, Fiat Tipo, Fiat Stilo, Fiat Uno, Peugeuot Turbo Diesel(yuk), Lancia HPE 2000ie (wow! a dream!) So far 3 Heralds and My fourth Vitesse in the garage. I may have forgotten some... It's my age.. Oh , Honda 400 four.. Terrifying! And the 2 Renault 5s. Oh, and the Ford Granada 3 litre estate..I think that's the lot. |

I've got an 'A' type fitted to my 2500 on HS6s. From memory the clearance is tight between the battery and alternator, but it does clear. May be due to the fact that the battery is quite a big one. 1972 Triumph 2000 – first car, daily driver and general hack, done 55,000 miles in my ownership. 2500 engine build 2012, transformed the car! RBRR 2012 entrant AND finisher, despite having to swap a drive shaft on the way round... 1972 TR6 CC – returned to the road in April 2019 for the first time since 1985! Team 14 10CR 2019, successful finisher |

Quoted from piman Almost. The 17ACR is an original fitment / brand new Lucas part, where the LRA100 is (or certainly used to be) a reconditioned one. It's meant to be compatible but may not match identically.

Quite likely, Alec. I suspect the distinction faded out rather as the ACR17 became obsolete - some time in the 1980s.

From the early 1990s when Steph and I used to Autojumble as sellers and buyers I acquired a couple of genuine Lucas alternator conversion kits. Filled the May 1965 kit into the July 1964 Mk1, quite a faff to fit but kept things in period. Mad Uncle Ted! |

Quoted from Spitfire6 I'll have a look at the box tomorrow to see what I bought ! Anything under about 900 revs and the ignition light came on. Now the alternator is fitted I've noticed a few things Indicators flash quicker even on tickover and the indicator lights on the dash seem brighter Headlights seem a touch better Herald 1500,rallyfied- overdrive,swing spring with 1500 spit diff,440lb front springs, adjustable height spax on front and back, trunionless conversion,thicker arb,rear roll cage,harnesses,bucket seats,extra gauges,Vitesse steering wheel,genuine 5.5j smoothies wheels,4 branch manifold Still for sale Mk1 2000 saloon,now a 2.5 ![]() Timing marshal CT autosolo Bovington 2011,2012,half of 2013,2014 and 2016 Marshalled Essex winter rally 2013 RBRR 2012, co driver 24th Nachtrit 2012, navigator Chinese rally 2013, navigator Essex winter rally 2014, navigator HCR 2014, co driver RBRR 2014, co driver Essex winter rally 2014,navigator Warwickshire winter rally 2016,driver HCR 2016 driver Essex winter rally 2016 navigator Mr Radders official calm down buddy |
