Amperage of 73 univolt

Hi all ... I am replacing my long serving original Univolt in my 73 Safari with a Progressive Dynamics product. Can anyone tell me what amperage the original Univolt system put out? Strangely this info is not in the Owner's or Service Manual.
Thanks in advance.
George

The one in my '83 Excella was 70 amps, see the photo of the label below. That said, I have two batteries. If you only have one, you may have a lower amperage Univolt.

You can see photos of my Univolt replacement at http://www.airforums.com/forums/f449...0-a-57567.html

If you have a single battery, a 45 amp should be fine.

I have a 9245 in my 75 TW.

Agreed.

I have a 45 amp Inteli-Power in my 68 TW. It has gotta be about 15 years old now.

Thanks Guys

Thanks for the advice. I am thinking of purchasing the PD4045 (combined converter and fuse panel), and it just happens to be 45 amps...
