Current equalizing resistors is another way to do it. It's common
practice in SS audio amps to use emitter resistors to equalize the
currents between parallel transistors. But I would hesitate using
them with modern alternators because I don't know how it would screw
with the regulators -- some have a local sense line and others have
a remote sense line -- a resistor in the load might send the
regulator into seizures.


Frank it is very easy a single regulator will control the field
voltage on
both alternators. This way they would run the same and share the
"Load"



I thought about that, but wouldn't the rotors need to be locked in
phase?


Yes if they are on the same belt they will be in phase with each other.



Belts slip.
