Product Description MGB Alternator 160 amp 12 volts with install kit -ABCSMGK

If your MGB suffers from low alternator output at idle or low speeds when radiator fan and AC are running then your MG
needs a higher output alternator to keep the battery charged. Most 60 amp or even 100 amp alternators will not generator 
enough power at idle to run these added accessories. The reason is that alternators at low RPM will only produce 50% or less of its rated power at 850-900 engine RPM. This is due partly due to pulley ratios but also the alternator design.
 
Vintage Auto Garage has designed this 160 amp alternator to produce around 70-80 amps at idle which is enough to power most any electrical accessory. These are all new custom built alternators, fully tested with 1 year warranty.

  • Custom build 12 volt 160 amp alternator (black)
  • 8 gauge connection wire with 5/16" ring connector 
  • Excite wire
  • 200 amp inline fuse kit

    Great 160 amp alternator to power my MGB

    Posted by Bill on Jul 13th 2022

    In my sophomore year in college I purchased a 1971 MGB, my first experience with a British sport car. I learned to tool on and cripple into shop to shop and soon found that it was a continuing journey, which may never reach it’s destination. Following graduation we parted and it was not until later in life, some 40 years, a friend offered to give me a ’77 B stored in his garage which had not been running for more than 20 years. In remembering my previous experience, I had second thoughts, but realized now I have more patience and a little more money. Needless to say, several years later upon completion of the restoration, in my first three outings each time it was necessary to call for a tow. By installing an A/C, a pull fan, and a sound system there was not an alternator out there that could produce the amps necessary to charge the system while at the same time fit the existing mountings. The final piece of my project was solved by Vintage Auto Garage in San Ramon, California which is considered to be the best in class products for many of our classics. Their 160 amp alternator was more than adequate for my requirements and fit perfectly into place. I’m now on the road with my MGB with the pleasure of having people smile as I drive by.
