Looks good, Ray. A slightly larger crank pulley will solve the idle charging problem. Here is a picture of the alternator I stuck on the right side of my 82 1100 Aspencade. It works well and as you can see I cut part of the fairing away just to accommodate it. I believe the 82 Aspencade's fairing is a little narrower that the 85 and 86 I owned. Early Toyota Carolas can probably supply the two row crank pulley. I couldn't locate one new so I am using the standard pulley which will not charge fully until 1800 to 2000 rpm. Thats OK for trips but a little inconvenient for around town where there may be a lot of sitting at stop lights on discharge. Whatever, sure beats hauling that whole chunk of aluminum meat out of the frame for alternator problems.
