For those unable to find an old transmission housing to make your starter mount, a company called Zalex Industries makes a starter adapter ring for VWs…they’re a bit pricey at $140 or so, but they are well built. Depending on your starter model, you may need to provide the appropriate bronze starter bushing.

Thanks for replying I was reading further on-line and it sounds like the voltage regulator needs a jump start or something like that. I was reading it on Quora. I tried posting website, but it keeps getting deleted. Here are some of the comments from that website: “Sometimes there is a relay in the circuit that turns on the light, and if this is faulty there will be problems getting the alternator to produce voltage. If your alternator is only showing 12.6 volts at 1600 rpm then it is not working. This would be the voltage of your battery. It should be showing about 14 volts when running. So the D+ exciter is not connecting, or is shorted out. Make sure all the insulating washers on the posts are installed correctly, and that there is a good contact with the D+ post. A temporary wire from the D+ post to the battery positive (disconnect the existing connection first) will allow a test run to show if the alternator is working. Start the engine and if the voltage is not 14 volts” So with battery cable attached to the alternator I used a temp wire and touched B+ to D+ I saw a little spark ⚡️ and it started the voltage regulator then I saw 14volts to the battery. I also did further testing while the engine was running, I disconnected the positive cable from the battery and the motor continued to run. Not sure why my start box didn’t providing this to the voltage regulator to start. I guess It’s all good now for testing. Hope this helps someone else!! Thanks again 👍
