Dynamo / Alternator Stands
(November 16, 2013)There are four generator/alternator stands.
Look at the last three numbers cast in:
211 is for the small-diameter generator (most 6V and late 912 12V)
211B is for the large-diameter (late 6V or 12V) generator on a singleport
211E is for a large-diameter generator on a twinport (it's clearanced slightly for the larger-diameter manifold)
211G is for alternators - it's obviously different since it's made to clear the larger-diameter business-end of an alternator.
You can use a G in place of an E or B.
You can use an E in place of a B.
You can also clearance a B yourself to use on a twinport, but be careful to take off just enough - too much and the strap won't seat properly and it'll keep sliding out of place
If you have a twinport with dual carbs it can use the B, since there's no concern about manifold clearance.
No numbers cast in? Most likely it's a repro' copy of a 211G.
