sorry i thort clutched was one way, didnt know there was 2 different ones

i dont get why people are scared of the serpantine system, get a TDI alternator which is more reliabale and usualy more amps, if your worried about the pully then eather do what i did and use a tdi crank, of just drill a hole in the pully through to the crank and put a pin in it

Ive only had bad experiances with V belts, they always come loose sum how :roll:

as for aaz pump, they are superior but duno if its worth the hastle, its the only pump bracket i cud find in my bit box

yup, aaz pumps aren't superior in any way to a TD.

If the goal is to build a generator, one doesn't need to worry about alternators, in fact it doesn't even need one as you will already have a huge one connected to the crank anyway

EDIT: now that I think of it, for a generator you only need a NA pump, as the LDA will never be used, generators work in stationary mode, in a very narrow sustained rpm range.
usually an electronic controller is used to handle the throttle lever
