    Alternator source

    I hate to ask this, but is Ken Bruno from kenbrunosports reputable? I've seen horror stories from the unmentionable guy from Chicago who also has dated alternators.

    Ken has a date 950 alternator for me so I wanted to know before I commit.

    Ken is certainly reputable. He's done about 30 alternators for me. I wouldn't send them anywhere else.

        FWIW, I bought one from him approx 5 years ago. I got dinged during flight judging for NTFP stator color and Ken fixed it for me at no cost.

        There are other good alternator vendors out there too. Availalbility/timing took me to Ken. Service and his business ethic would have me go there again.

            Ken had a 1100543 42A RG for me after a long search. It looks and works like new.

                Mine was painted black, judges were looking for a transparent caramel color. I didn't/don't see anything in the JG that describes expected color. I mentioned it to Ken when I saw him at Carlisle and he told me to send it back so he could fix it, which I/he did. I'm happy...

                  Thanks everyone,
                  I think I'll ask for a picture of the date stamps before I commit.
