Can't because the top bracket is too short to even reach the alternator - even when the alternator is pressed up against the valve cover.

It's hitting the valve cover in this pic. The bracket not reaching the hole by about an 1"
Then take into consideration for tension, and it's just way too far off.


Not sure the freeze plug caps will remain, some are giving me grief over them. lol
