It also came with a double pulley on the alt. I know in earlier 426 MW years they would run double pulley alt's for stability, but not sure if that's the case for a 66' street Hemi. Thoughts? Thanks, Tony

Paint it Race Hemi Orange (also called "Early Hemi Orange"). The later "Street Hemi Orange" is too red and completely wrong for early engines.

The alt. was original. The factory parts catalog shows that '69 was the first year that the Hemi alternator got the 3" double-groove pulley. The INTERNET, the MISinformation superhighway

That would have been nice to know that day, but I don't think it would have changed a thing
