Recommend me an alternator bracket

quite a while ago I replaced the alternator in my truck and because it is a different configuration than stock it has very little throw. Roughly just enough room to get a finger between the valve cover and the alt body. It is a pain to find the right belt and squeeze it on and still have enough throw to tension it properly, especially after the belt stretches.

This summer I put a vintage air system in the truck and the compressor mounts nice a wide and is easy to get and tension a belt. This got me to thinking that there has to be a alternator bracket that will move the alternator out to a similar position as the compressor.

Can anyone point me in the right direction for an alternator bracket that is not billet aluminum at will get me a little... or a lot of extra throw on a short water pump.

No thread is complete without a couple pictures.
