Where is the voltage regulator on a 1979 Corvette?

The voltage regulator on a 1979 Corvette is located on the alternator. It is not a separate unit. This is typical for many vehicles of that era.

To be more specific:

* If your Corvette has an internally regulated alternator: The regulator is a component inside the alternator itself, and there is no external regulator.

* If your Corvette has an externally regulated alternator: The regulator would be a small box-like device attached to the side of the alternator.

To confirm which type of alternator you have, you can:

1. Check the alternator tag: The alternator tag usually lists its specifications, including whether it is internally or externally regulated.

2. Inspect the alternator: Look for a separate regulator attached to the side of the alternator.

Important Note: This information is general and based on common practices for the time period. You may need to consult a repair manual or your local mechanic for specific details about your Corvette's model year and specific alternator.
