OooooKaaaay...
My ALT lives where your PS pump lives
My A/C lives where your Alt lives
My P/S pump lives down below my A/C (maybe where your A/C lives?)
All driven off the Serpy
My Endless Air Comp lives between and outboard of the A/C and the P/S pump and is driven by that dinky 2nd belt off the A/C
My Serpy belt tensioner lives between the Alt and the Water Pump
Dolphins are so smart that within a few weeks of captivity, they can train people to stand on the very edge of the pool and throw them fish.

2 things, air flow or pulley speed.
Alternators generally need to spin at a certain speed to generate current, if it is too slow, you may be overloading it.
6.5 don't rev that high, so maybe it's revs?
Have a look at the Alternators stateside and see what pulleys they run on their 6.5s.

I can now see tiny little fan blades inside its front cover, seriously small blades though, much like a few 2cm x 1cm paddles and say 10 of them at best.

ROFL, I thought it twas the other way, just as likely I'm wrong :-)

Yep... sure will be... as prev posted by PD all Alts have fans BUT might will pay to make sure your DOR is correct as stated by the Manuf otherwise the Alt will overheat internal or external fan regardless

Agree... ALTs are normally geared up as much as 2 on Pettys to 3 times on Diesels relative to engine RPM.
If the RPM of the Alt is low or the DOR wrong they will get hotter than they should.
Dunno if that is your prob but def where I would start looking

AB’s a little busy, just kindly had @matfew also confirm his GQ alt is clockwise from front viewing.
It was an older Ebay purchase advertised as for GQ so unsure of how I can check by myself its DOR design now :-( ?

Is your Alt rotating clockwise like a GQ? If so you would think the Alt is set correctly if it was supposed to be for a standard Q
Otherwise, if you can eyeball the internal blades set to pull air from the rings, over the stator and expel at the front when rotated the way your setup.
It should be OK as the only way to reverse the DOR is like with a Serpy IE where you can run a belt 'under' a driven pulley (gives CCW DOR) as as opposed to 'over' (gives CW DOR)
