The generators and starters shown below were the basis for the Heavy Duty business for at least the last 25 years of Delco-Remy's existence.  These then also formed the product line for the new company that was spun off as Delco Remy America (Now Remy). 



Heavy Duty Delcotrons - 20SI, 21SI, 26SI, 30SI and 50DN


While the SI models all had the internal  integrated circuit regulator, the 50 DN had a separate transistorized regulator originally built in Plant 6 and then in Plant 17.

Heavy Duty Starters - 28MT, 37MT, 38MT, 42MT and 50MT
