73 GT550 not charging so ran tests. I've installed new Rectifier and Regulator for Oregon Electronics just to upgrade the system. After tests looks like the rotor is the culprit and will be replacing the alternator as well.
Question what is the procedure for removing the rotor?

You will need a 10x1.25 pitch bolt to remove the rotor.

All set , found the info on the rotor removal in a search, and the homemade tool necessary to pop it off.
Thanks
