car alternators - mounted on truck brackets
has anyone come up with a mounting solution, for putting a car alternator (GTO or corvette) on the truck accessory bracket (up high driver side) ?
the truck alts are shorter (axially) and the bolt hole locations are different. I'm considering cutting off the ears from the cast alum. truck bracket, and TIG welding some new mounting points to it so the car alt can mount. seeing how most everything has been done before...I figure I would ask first before I start hacking. backstory: I'm in a spot using a GTO harness/computer and need to use the GTO alternator. mounting it down low with GTO brackets hits the frame hard - I believe but have not mocked it up yet. The bigger problem seems it hits the motor mounts due to axial depth. I'd like to stick with truck pulley spacing and accessories. I have both truck and GTO bracketry/pumps/crank pulley to play with.
