Alternator Brackets Update

[1lejohn]

I got the new bracket in the other day. Here are the left-over pieces. I had to slight modify their design. The design is a good one it clocks the alt. over and down lower toward the pass. side. My problem was the fuel pump lines, and the alt didn't play well. The alt wound up sitting on the pump discharge. I wound up cleaning up the mounting and getting rid of the junk in the last picture. I used the stock spacer for the bolt that goes into the head. It's a better design. It's a bracket and spacer that bolts to the alt. I still need to cut some of the length off of the spacer or shim the top bracket out. You can see in the picture the belt is a little off. Of course, after fighting this project for several hours upon finishing the fuel line leaked. I drove to the store and noticed a bad smell coming out of the AC ducts. At least the truck didn't burn to the ground. Lucky maybe, maybe not.

I hate that you had issues since I had good luck with and recommended that bracket.
Best i can tell you could've clocked your fuel pump clockwise 1 or 2 sets of holes to get the lines to clear the alternator. Mine has the same style pump but Holley brand and the outlet is facing the right front corner of the truck. Good to see you made it work though
