For what it is worth, I decided to replace all of the running rigging this year. I went with Sta-Set X. I did a little shopping around  and found a place called Sailing Services in Miami. http://www.sailingservices.com/index.htm I gave them a call and found them to be knowledgeable, courteous, and friendly.

Alternator Mounting Brackets.  Here is the old style mounting bracket. http://www.marinedieseldirect.com/universal/200142/alternator-group.htm And here is the new style. http://www.marinedieseldirect.com/universal/200142/alternator-mount-conversion-kit-group.htm

The key is part #13 which takes the structural load and feeds it into the exhaust manifold water jacket.  Previous, the load was going into a bolt in the gear case housing. The gear case housing was subject to cracking.  This is an important upgrade.  If the housing cracks, enough oil can leak out, if you don't notice it,  to damage your engine.

Shafts,  Seals, Drive Savers, Props

Two years ago I bought a new shaft from a place in Florida called General Propeller Company http://wwwgpcprop.com. It was a 1" stainless shaft with taper and key way which came equipped with bronze nuts and key. I paid $179.74 plus $18.00 shipping and it arrived in fine shape. This was a credit card transaction. I ordered that shaft as 1.0 OD by 58" overall length. It took about 2 weeks to complete the deal.
