Do you want 6v or 12v. I have a 12v recon'd unit on the shelf.

I have an E3L for a BSA twin which I want to swap for am E3L for a Velocette. Drive end covers differ I think, not sure about the taper I need to check it out.
Mine would need fettling, it's missing the long 'through' screws and that tin commutator cover, must dig it out and see.

 now that you've nicely painted it, you'll need to ensure that it has a good Earth connection
Started building in about 1977/8 a on average '52 A10 -built from bits 'n pieces never resto intended -maybe 'personalised'
Have a '74 850T Moto Guzzi since '92-best thing I ever bought doesn't need a kickstart 'cos it bump starts sooooooooo(mostly) easy

  You might want to be careful about the dyno heat build up if a lot of paint was put on the dyno, especially on really long jaunts. Especially if the summer temperatures are up higher.
