Anyone know of a water cooled alternator that would work?
Just asking because they seem to last forever.
I do not, but I did note the 28SI has dual cooling fans (one in front, and one in back) and was rated for 257 degrees, which seemed to be on the higher side compared to other available alternators...

I also noticed Delco has a series of brushless alternators. I would think this would also result in a more reliable alternator, though not sure if that is true in practice....

They look to be quite pricey as well....
