    I had a PowerGen on my '34 21 stud flattie. When we put the Eddie Meyer intake on, I had to go back to the generator, the PowerGen hit the front carb.

    You can easily cut down the length of a Powermaster Alternator yourself.
    There's a lot of empty space at the rear.

    9" is the long one, it states that right on the website. It actually looks odd to me but that's just my opinion. The shorter one's dims look more symmetrical.
