454 Alternator Swap Sides - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Hi all.

I'm going to be adding aftermarket A/C to my 69 Non-AC SWB Fleet. Today the V-belt driven alternator's on the passenger side, but that's where I want to put the A/C compressor in order to avoid running those ugly hoses across the front of the engine. I don't think it matters, but I'm running Edelbrock's Performer series aluminum heads.

What bracketry should I look for to mount the alternator on the driver's side just above the power steering?

Besides rewiring the alternator, What other problems do you think I'll run into?

Here's a pic of my current setup.

Thx
