old mopar regulator

Just how good is the electronic voltage regulator, the old one that there now converting to electronic, need opinions thanks

BTT

no idea what u asked

The old pre 1970 single field mechanical regulators? They worked fine usually and were adjustable. I have one of those mp blue 13.5 volt substitutes, and haven't tried it. Most parts stores also have an electronic replacement in stock too, for the old points style reg. (69 and older)

i would upgrade it to the newer solid state elect VR on it over the mech points type

best up grade I did to my 68 dart

still ran points too,till I swaped in the pertronix conversion,2nd best upgrade I did to it

Parts houses have a wells vr706 if I am remembering the # correctly that is an electronic replacement for 69 back cars but is not identical to OE appearance and someone here sells (or used to have) new black ones that looked OE but is electronic on the inside for $25 to your doorstep (mrrandy was his handle or something close to that so if you see it that's the one) I'd check the parts for sale sections here if that is what you are after.

I use the electronic conversion regs. and no problems at all...constant volts. Bought mine at Autozone or Advance for a decent price.

And your cover from an original fit's.

The new replacements are the best thing since sliced bread.Have them on 3 cars.My kids 62 street driven has been on at least 10 years.Dump the old points one and get the direct replacement electronic one.I changed my 65 to a dual field years ago.If the new style had been avaliable Id have one of those on it.Best part is they just go right in with no changes.Rocky
