Jeff,
Are you sure the 2nd alternator is for 24V?� I have
imported and owed a few dual alternator T3s and they were all 12V - just
two separate systems one for the regular stuff and one for the military
stuff like radios and the like.� This way one could run the radio
batteries flat and start the van.

Also, it really don't look
like a Syncro 16 as the fender openings are not cut.� 

Don't get me wrong - neat truck that someone added some nice goodies
to.
