What's the length of the altenator bracket bolt. It's the one that is in the bracket closest to the altenator.

Mine must not have been tight so it sheared off flush with the block. Several people suggested that I weld another bolt to it to be able to unscrew the original bolt, OK. But don't have a welder. So I used JB Weld to JB Weld the new bolt to the old one. Let it set up for about 23 hrs and wala the old bolt just backed out like it had the original head on it.

JB Weld ROCKS!!!!
