I have a genset which is powered by a 25 BHP diesel engine.
Can I make a Stirling engine by heat recovery from the
hot air exhaust of the genset.My idea is to generate
some addational electric power by coupling the Stirling engine
with one small AC generator.

The temperature and quantity of waste heat from a Diesel engine would not be adequate to run a Stirling engine & generator to make any signifigant amount of power output.
