I don't know if anyone knows or cares, but I put a 55Amp Bosch Type I alternator 
in my '70 SB.  All thats necessary is to grind a little metal off of the 
aluminum fan housing and get a new fan belt.  You can then remove the voltage 
regulator under the rear seat.  It has worked great for me with the high power 
needs of my many electric additions.
