KRnetters, I am very excited to have finally completed a 27 month long step in my KR construction. Yesterday I completed the modifications needed to make my Hitachi alternator look to my engine like a magento. I have put together a link that compiles my diary pages into one page of the alternator modification at: http://flyboybob.com/web_pages/kr2/alternator_index.htm. I need some peer review of the drive puck installation from those of you with magneto experience. I have approximately .200" engagement depth into the .250" deep magneto drive puck when the puck is fully seated on the alternator.
Now for the important questions: What is the normal engagement depth clearnace for the magneto drive puck? Does anyone have access to an installation manual that gives specifications for the magneto drive puck clearnaces? Regards, Bob Lee N52BL KR2 Suwanee, GA 91% done only 65% to go!
