My 57 has a 283 V-8 with power steering , and no air conditioning . It is a very late August 57 produced car . from all that I have read thanks to all tri -five members the ; 1956 V-8 and very early 57's with PS used generator part no. 1102041 and was 30 amps and used an AC Delco voltage regulator 1119001 . Very shortly after the beginning of production in 1957 the 1102041 was dropped, and the 1102084 gen. was installed for PS with and without air conditioning . The 1102041 gen. is 35 amps with voltage regulator 1119002 . Finding a mint AC 1119002 voltage regulator is very hard to do . When calling Napa for an '' Echilin " after market one it seems they offer a 25-30 amp one with the same part number VR122 and a 40amp one VR-126 but no "35 amp one " . Any suggestions ?
