Just noticed this post. I ran an alternator in my 1968 Impala BBC 396/325 I/S car back in 2004. Never tried without the belt. Damn if I could have picked up that much I would have tried it. I liked running the alternator felt batter keeping a full charge in battery plus I ran 7 AL MSD box which will be same in my 65.
