Re: Replacement of dynamo with alternator
A and A1 are now joined together outside the regulator. I will try BMecosse's suggestion and re-connect them to the regulator, which is still in place. Won't manage to work on the car until after the weekend.Thanks for the advice so far.

Re: Backplates
Hi,
I think the Morris Minor Centre in Bath can supply ready made backplates.I don't know how much they cost.
I have just bought a Morris Ital 1275 + engine/clutch/gearbox on e-bay, and intend to do the same conversion later this year, so I would be interested to know how you progress.
