Will it work? Taking all bets...
I'm converting my 1962 Morris Mini from a dynamo to an alternator, and if anyone has a good How-to for the wiring, please send me a link!!
The new alternator's mounting bracket is nearly a half-inch too low, and out here in California, we're still under quarantine lock down, so my welding shop is closed. I can't make a metal bracket for a few weeks ... maybe months.
I took some measurements, sat in front of my computer for a half an hour, and designed a new mount for my engine. A few hours later, the print finished, and I coated it with epoxy resin to stiffen it up. It installed per-fect-ly, but that's not really the issue at hand, is it?
Before I attach the battery leads and turn the engine over, what does everyone think? Personally, I'm wondering if the 3D plastic will warp inside its resin case.

(ps: I'll build a real mounting bracket when the shop opens!)
