I just bought an electric water pump for my big block and have to move the alternator so that it is above the fuel pump, do you guys have any ideas on where i can find these brackets?

check 73 and later. If that is correct they are very available, 73-80 & 81-87.

If you want to trade the swp for lwp let me know the alt will be on top on right (passenger)

68gmcjon · 07-23-2005, 02:58 AM

How nice of brackets you want? Nice ones here.

I have a right side Alt mount setup that I bought from board member billsbowtie a few months back. I can't use since I forgot that my old 283 has no accy holes in the heads. Now I replacing with a newer 350 that came with it's own mounts. I'll sell it for the same price I paid $15 + shipping. I can get post a pic if your interested in it.

68gmcjon · 07-25-2005, 12:01 PM

yes, please post a pic, and could you show where they mount?

Jegs and Summit sell some really slick brackets that work great. I bought one for a chevelle and it worked great. They are kind of pricey, around $75-100, but they work really good. You can also check out Napa, they sell a one-wire alternator that works great if you are relocating your alternator.
