Correct Alternator for Series I

Hi Everyone- I just noticed that the alternator on my 1960 Series I is too big & the belt that connects it to the water pump is actually misaligned. Does anyone know the correct Alternator size? Thanks
 
Gerry, As stated above originally your car would have had a dynamo. Lots have been changed to alternators as they are more efficient, higher powered etc. You can generally move them forward or backwards by slotting the mounting bracket. Ensure that it is parallel with the pulley on the crankshaft, the pulley on the waterpump can be moved fairly easily.
