Voltage Regulator Stamping
ChrisV289:
What is the correct voltage regulator stamping supposed to be on a Oct 64 build fastback 289 w/ AC? I see yellow Autolite, white Autolite, and white Fomoco script are offered.

Believe you will find the that yellow silver printing was for standard (AF engineering number) and silver yellow for the heavy duty (TF engineering number) for cars with that option, bigger battery, larger alternator amps ...
There was a issue with the early voltage regulators sorry can't recall the month and year of the change) Voltage regulators after that date were marked with a yellow paint daub on the cover. Will try and remember to find that info and post. Wrote an article for MCA decades ago that included that info
J_Speegle:
Opps got them reversed :'( Lucky someone else picked up on it and let me know. THANKS
Post corrected
ChrisV289:
Thanks Jeff! Hopefully you find the info...
