I have thought of doing this very thing. Note I haven't done it yet. My idea was to use the belt pully, maybe with the v belts just running on the flat belt pully. Two belts on center wouldn't run into tension problems fron the crown I don't think. I know you don't get as good traction on the flat pully as a v groove, but you have a lot of surface for traction. It is usually the small pullys that slips, this might just equal out the traction between the pullys. Then mount the generator in front of the radiator with the pully in line with the belt pully. I would figure on the 3 to one step up I think, no need to run the engine too hard for a fairly light load. And a 10 or 11" belt pully would workout to a 3 or 3 1/2 " generator pully, probably doable. Let us know how it works if you do it.
