Alternators for B-58 Baron
 

Just wondering if anyone can recomend the brand of alternator to get for a Baron, either new or overhauled, or somoene who does custom built Alternators. The catch is I'm after one that is the best that is available regardless of price.

The best, in my considered opinion, would be the Prestolite 100amp ALV series...ALV9610 I think, is the model.
Very reliable.
However, whatever you do, do NOT purchase from Kelly Aerospace...as their overhauled units are subject to failure on short notice.
Kelly is very bad news....unless of course you are after a boat anchor.

Second choice would be a TCM alternator...nearly as good as the Prestolite units.

Alternators.
 

nomorecatering,

411A is correct. Do not touch anything from Kelly, especially from where you live. You will spend a fortune shipping them back for warrantee claims.

I put 4 kelly alts on a Pa28 and changed the over volts and volt reg before realising i was getting duff alts one after the other, one i went to fit did not even have the wire on one of the diodes.... steer clear
