Instructions
 |
| The
new APS™ Alternator features a CNC machined billet aluminum
housing that delivers great looks with precision and strength.
The power producing components are just as impressive! |
 |
| After
selecting an alternator for your engine, simply pick the right
bracket kit for your application. Kits are available for many
GM, Ford and Chrysler applications with more being added. |
 |
| The
Slide Loc mounts allow you to position the alternator in the
best location for your application. The billet aluminum brackets
produce a strong installation. |

Advanced Power System™ Alternator
The
performance of your race car's ignition relies on the charging system.
Since these systems go hand-in-hand, it was only time before MSD designed
and offered a high output alternator. Our new line of Advanced Power System™
Alternators will be available just in time for the 2004 racing and cruising
season!
Don't let the billet housing fool you
as there's much more beneath this great looking housing. MSD engineers
have spent thousands of hours testing different internal components, materials
and windings. A special rectifier with 50 amp diodes improves control
and reliability while a new surface mount regulator isolates and protects
from high voltage spikes. Even the bearings were hand picked to withstand
heavy axial loads and high rpm.
Not
only does the precision machined housing provide cool looks and great
strength, but it also delivers a new universal mounting design called
Slide-Loc. This technology allows one unit to be mounted to a variety
of engines by selecting a bracket kit. (For speedshops, this feature
means that you only need to stock one alternator!) The bracket installation
kits are available separately for a growing number of different applications.
Two
models will be available in three outputs; a 105 amp, 130 amp and 160
amp version in either a direct plug-in installation or a one wire model.

 MSD's revolutionary Slide-Loc assembly
provides nearly universal mounting! Simply install the slide mounts
into place then install the bracket kit for your application. More
mounting kits will be available soon!

| APS Pulleys |
 |
| Each Pulley is cut from a billet of aluminum and
is supplied with a great looking MSD cap to cover the mounting
nut. The Pulleys are designed to give you an approximate 3:1 ratio
with a standard crankshaft pulley. |

APS Alternator Pulleys and Brackets
Our APS Alternators are becoming more and more popular and our mechanical engineers are trying to keep up with new bracket kits and pulleys. The new Pro-Billet Pulleys are smaller in diameter for engines that see a lot of low rpm operation, such as street rods. This is especially important on cars that have the AC set on freeze, with the radio cranking and while the electric fuel and water pumps are humming along.
