Generator output is limited by the design of the commutator and the strength of solder. As JunkYardDog stated there is a certain amount of adjustment but I dont advise going beyond that. Tony

You can set the 36 generator for 15-20 amps because it is cooled by the fan and open back. That should be plenty unless you are using halogen lamp bulbs.

If it is a show car you would not want to do this, but I run later model 30 amp generators and voltage regulators on my cars that originally had the 20 amp cut out generators.
