Alternator, cooling boot ? Options

[luskesq]

I’m replacing the alternator in my ’70 1.7 teener. The cooling boot/vent whatever it is called was missing (99.9% of it). I located an alternator air exhaust elbow on-line that I think attaches to the port on the back of the alternator but I’m not certain where the other end goes. There doesn’t appear to be a place for it to attach to. This elbow is only about 3.5-3” overall so either it isn’t the right part or I’m missing something, figuratively and literally such as more tin. There is a small port slightly below the alt. pivot bolt area coming out of the fan housing. It has a rectangular opening of about 2” x ¾” but for all I know that is part of the heating system and the elbow I have won’t stretch that far.
Would anyone have a picture of what this “boot” is supposed to look like and how it hooks up? Comments & pics are much appreciated.

I recommend the site and the ccooling boots I link too. I have bought and installed both, and am currently using the 55 amp.. the 70 amp I sold to a member and he has it installed no issues, just as i did.. but (IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) you must understand what your doing when you cross over any vw parts, but once you have faith and understand you will find NLA 914 stuff being sold openly and widely available, for example thermostat bellows are thought to be NLA, but I learned the factory maker "Wahler" and the operating temp. 65-70 vs the others they made for other vw applications and damn if I cannot get a dozen right now.. and have one installed working perfectly.. 914 is a VW/Porsche not a Porsche/Porsche.. Alot of times VW parts sales only undersatnd the VW's that these parts are used for and not the 914, and visa versa/.. More often than not if you buy a part marketed for a 914 you will pay more for the same part listed elsewhere for less but marketed for a VW Bus..

I am all about blowing $$$ on my 914 but am also about getting new parts that am told unavailable..
