the trucks had a small cast bracket that mounted to the head, & the alt bolted to that.....i beleive that was 68-72(the 67s didnt have the accessory holes in the head, & used a stamped brackets like the cars had).....maybe somebody has some pics

My stock bracket goes in both of the wholes in the head. I really don't like it though, and I am ordering one of these tomorrow.

ive got the top bracket that you adjust it with, but i cant find one for the bottem anywhere.... it looks like it must bolt straight to the end of the rams horn (theres 2 holes in it)
this pic of the old 305 shows how the top is mounted |

69-72 have a cast iron lower that bolts into the front holes in the head,if you have early heads they dont have these provisions,aftermarket may not either.then the stamped steel adjustor.the 69 up trucks didnt use the bracket that bolts into the exhaust manifold.i have truck,car,style brackets available if needed,the style that bolt to side of manifold,and the kind that bolt to the front of manifold,and the correct truck ones.Im going to ebay them all soon,let me know if theres a certain kind you need.email me.

the alt bracket in the bottom picture is from before the heads had mounting holes and will not work with heads with the mounting holes

josh, here is where the bolts go...
![]() And it'll look something like this... ![]() I can't place it on there quite right since my truck has the later style brackets. My steering pump is in the way. |

Blue 71,
I have a great picture of the bracket and setup, took it so that I knew how to put it back together on my "70. The file is to big (800K) to post here. if you want I can send it to you direct if you have a high speed internet connection.

BigJim, Im the other longhorn(the crazy one!), but that is a bracket for the short pump alt. If you didnt have the acc bolts in the heads, you needed a stamped steel bracket that bolted to the waterpump & ex manifold. Desert rat had the yrs right on (69-72) on the cast bracket. the stamped bracket was older, but mounted the alt in the same position(just had a boss on the end of the manifold that the later manifold didnt have). the same set up that Longhorn pics on , is in my kids ranger(Ferd with a SB Chev).......the only way to do a ferd

Jim, I have73 up stuff on my longhorn, so have to think about the old stuff a little also! The kids ranger is stiill fresh in my mind(sorta)......it was only a couple yrs ago that I did that swap. the power steering pump bracket would make a preacher cuss tho, the pump is on the pass side
