use the origional
but make sure you fit it in the correct position so the cooling vent works for the bearings

Hi
Your 12 volt generator stuff should work, some Kombi generators had different tin. Do a check when its together for belt alignment.

Paul,
Absolutely re-use the gennie twinware & hardware (fan hub, woodruff keys, spacers etc). It is far better quality. The slot faces down, just
in case you need to re-orient it. A few things to watch?
Make sure the Alt doesn't hang up on the alt stand. It is the alt lower two ribs that may do it. Judicious angle grind fix.
Running an alt fuel pump? Make sure your pump rod is 100mm. I got supplied a 108mm (Gennie) pump rod with my alt pump.
Carb accelerator pump linkage may interfere. Definitely will on a 1600DP with a Gennie 34 Pict 3. Brutalise/bend or Grind the alt body.
Here's a cheap read :
Regards
Sean

its only the early pict-3 carbs with the adjustble pump stroke towards the back of the car that have clearance issues
but that is easily gotten around
