I replaced the original damaged generator cut off on my 37 coupe with an aftermarket one, I have had nothing but trouble with it fusing the points together. I need to replace it again and I was wondering if I should use the same type or the diode type (some say they run hot) they also tell me that you can get one with a voltage regulator built in. what does the brains trust suggest. and who would be able to supply same. thanks in advance FAT DOG (Australia)

I have a stock 36 coupe. I changed my stock cutout with the new regulator type. It looks stock, but I don't have to keep moving the third brush to regulate gen. output. Once you set the third brush as per instructions it works great. I find also, that I don't have add water to the batt. due to over charging as much, which is great because my batt. is under the seat.

Try the Nurex; it incorporates both a diode and heat sink. Looks correct too

Hi FAT DOG I got the regulator from C & G early ford parts in Escondido CA. USA. CGfordparts.com, item #10505R-v8. A little pricy at $89.95 back in 2019. I am not familiar with the Nurex or who makes the C&G brand. Frank.
