Alt mounting - need a pic

The angle dump manifolds are going back on this week, and I know that I used a new alt bracket when the headers went on. What would the factory mount for a driver's side alt have looked like?
TIA

Thumbs up Re: Alt mounting - need a pic

This is the factory bracket for the heads. If they have the holes in them. This was on my old small block 305.




I bought this one to go on my 64 Impala but it came off of a 72 C10.




After I painted it.

LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB!
After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.

I believe the 67-68 truck used the exhaust manifold to mount the alternator. I borrowed a picture from another thread. You can't see the mount very well, but may give you an idea.

Re: Alt mounting - need a pic

As I feared- pretty sure there's nothing in my stash that looks like any of these. Time to fabricate. Thanks for the responses.

The bracket I posted is on any small block Chevy motor with long water pump. Cars trucks it don't matter as long as you have the heads with the stud holes to mount with.
Any good junkyard should have plenty of them.

Re: Alt mounting - need a pic

aaaand here I learn that I need 67-68 manifolds. No mounting boss on the manifold as pictured, no holes in the front of the head. Thanks for the responses.
