Power, B&C alternator.
I believe that George meant to say alodined (chem film per
MIL-C-5541) rather than anodized (per MIL-A-8625)
because, if you were to anodize the housing, you would
have to do it selectively (not in the area that makes chassis
ground contact), since anodizing is insulative. My B&C is
chem filmed and chem. film (chromate) is conductive.

Thanks for the correction. I did mean to say anodized,
but you are right, anodize would be a poor choice,
conductive wise. I am probably mistaken, but......
I talked to Steve at Plane-Power and he said something
he does some with corrosion proofing PP units per our phone
conversation. My memory is faulty; may be he said alodine?
Again thanks for keeping me straight (nicely). It's not
advertise on their site, I could find, but there is a coating step
in there. G
(Love the detailed Mil specs)
