We have recently received two DC generators and would be keen to know what applications they may have had. The first is obviously US made and is similar to that fitted to (but not necessarily correct for) our Packard Merlin. Given it is NZ, would it be correct for a P51?
The other is obviously British, and is huge. We aren’t entirely convinced it is off an aircraft engine, although the mounting flange and drive spline would seem to suggest as much. Anyone have any idea what it might be from?
If anyone needs either for their project, they are probably available for trade.

According to the T.O interchange list the O-1 generator was suitable for a wide range of aircraft -everything form B-17 through to early Allison P-51. Being from NZ I would think it was probably used on C-47.

The lack of a stores reference number on the second one would suggest it’s not from a military aircraft.
