I purposely made the engine pad to allow for changes and upgrades

Same here. My GM90 can accommodate a 4kw AC head or a DC alternator with a quick 10 minute swap.

It's good to have a backup in case one of them fails. 10 minutes to do a change out,  I won't be able to do it that fast. I'm probably looking at 30 to 40 minutes. The Meccalte SA20-130 generator head with pulley is right around 105 Lbs. I'm getting to old to lift it. I'd have to use a hoist.

The 24 volt Delco 26SI  is a pretty large alternator. How many amps is rated for?
