Have been digging through service bulletins and such that I haven't seen 
for over a decade. Once of the things I found was specs on the early 
Decotrons from the Corvair period.

While for service there were essentially four units, production over the 
Corvair years had a much wider set (not all available at the same time). 
What I found were 10 DN alternators with outputs of 20, 25, 30, 32, 37, 40 
,42, 47, 50, 52, 55, 58, 60, 61, 63, 66, 70, and 72 amps (Service Bulletin 
1G-187).

However all Corvairs seem to be either 37 or 47 amps
1965-69                 1100639    25A/2000 rpm, 35A/5000 rpm, Rated 37A
1965 & 1966 A/C         1100698    31A/2000 rpm, 45A/5000 rpm, Rated 47A

The odd thing is that while most GM car lines got Delcotrons for 
1963,  1965 was the first year for the Corvair.
