Changfa 195 cooling

[Stevem]

Mobil Bob;
     Thank you for your wealth of info  I am all ears about radiator and pump.  I am direct driving my changfa and am wondering how you go about getting your dc voltage for pump and fan.  Is it somehow belt driven with battery?  A picture sure would be nice.  Thanks

if you can give me a couple weeks i can find or get some pics posted, however here are but a couple of idea's that will get you what you need in the way of 12vdc to drive the pump, fan etc.

1. you can get a 120/240 12vdc power supply such as one of these off ebay, this you connect to your st head and then you have all needed DC power.

the ebay unit is a 20amp capacity, ample for driving a pump and fan i believe,  they do make units that are larger if you need more amp capacity.

2. in my setup i have the 195 direct driving an st 7.5kw head, twin 110-555jho alternators, and a sanden AC compressor.
in my setup i take 12vdc from one of the 555's, but will be changing over to option #1 above as my future plan is to take 24vdc nominal from each of the 555's connect in series and charge my 48volt bank.. reason being one of higher efficiency.

the above listed is a genuine and not an aftermarket,  in my opinion the best alternator dollar for dollar ever made!

Bob or anyone I have a Sifang S1110/1115 And I badly need a  a Dip Stick. According to the manual, part number is 195 01101-2
since it begins with 195 i think it is probably the same as the 195 engine model.

OR

If someone could measure the distance from bottom of threads to each of the oil level marks it would be a life saver, or at least an engine saver.

I'd be interested in getting one of those alternators but the thing that totally pisses me off with buying anything from the states is the bullshit postage they want to charge. In this case, about 180-190 of my dollars.
I can get stuff from anywhere else in the world at a reasonable rate but the Americans always want to screw you over.

I have emailed and asked for a sensible postage rate, I'll see what indignant reply comes back like the last time I asked for a reasonable postage charge from the US.

Maybe I should post my Roid for sale on US ebay?
Engine, $100 buy it now plus $10K postage.
Bargain!!
