Groan. I've got a failing 65A Lucas A127 on Marge.

The more modern Magneti Marelli ones (also Lucas really) are both
cheaper and higher output, which seems sensible given I've fitted a
bigger battery etc.

Is a straight swap possible/sensible, say with the sort for the 300tdi
engine? I realise the pulley would have to be changed (my old'un is just
a vee-belt), and I guess that could be a show-stopper, but otherwise it
looks like a good fit.

Comments? Anyone tried it, or similar?

Regards,

Simonm.
