My 57 Chevy Bel Air has factory power steering. The generator has part number 1102084 on the Delco Remy tag. I believe the Delco Remy generator is a 30 amp. Generator to support the power steering? I was told "non" power steering cars had a 25 amp. generator p/n 1119000, is that true? My Delco Remy voltage regulator is part number 11109003, and I believe it is also a 30 amp. voltage regulator.? At our recent Vintage Chevrolet Club of America annual judging event, one of the judges said the metal base on my Bel Air voltage regulator should be a silver color anodizing, where my voltage regulator has gold color anodizing finish. Which is correct? I have seen vintage 11109003 regulators on line with both silver and gold color bases. All of The non-power steering regulators p/n 11109000 I have seen have the silver base. Can anyone help me solve this mystery, and would the gold color metal base be a points deduction?

not sure about the finish on a 1119003 regulator but all 1119001 voltage reguators used on 56 and 57 Corvettes had a silver cadmium plated base and gloss black cover. the 1119001 stamping is in a straight line on original factory installed regulators. later service replacement 1119001 regulators will be stamped in two lines, the 1119 on a single line and the remainder, 001 will be on a second line of stamps. Originals will also have the date code stamped on the base. mike mccagh

I've got a original 57 Bel Air with power steering. The tag on the generator is new and has no part number on it. How can I put the 1102084 number on it?

With very small number stamps. I do not know where you can find number stamps small enough but I am sure some one does.
