okay, i'm trying to convert this to american

you are tying to use a sohc generator (alternator in the US) from your old sohc engine on the new dohc engine....correct?

in theory i suppose you could cut the plug and still use it, however i don't suggest that. short answer you'll burn it out. you really need to get the correct generator which would be one for a dohc
