ZuL8r Posted July 7, 2006 Share Posted July 7, 2006 http://www.speedspecialty.com/store/view_product.php?product=lt1altbracketV2 The pictures on this website are not great but it looks like another possible option for running just an alternator. I can't tell from the picture if it will clear or not because the picture looks photochopped. What do yall think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wheelman Posted July 7, 2006 Share Posted July 7, 2006 Looks to me like it will interfere with the drivers side Datsun motor mount tower. Like you said the picture is very fuzzy and definitely "photochopped" so it's hard to tell. It also does not eliminate the requirement for idler pullies in place of the AC compressor and the PS pump.

Dave Posted July 8, 2006 Share Posted July 8, 2006 I have a mid mount on my old 350 and it fits well and works well. its made by Allen Grove. They have a low mount for the LT1 that goes on the right side and may work $60 http://www.alangrovecomponents.com/LT1.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"This bracket mounts the alternator low on the passenger side of the engine. Works well where only an alternator will be used." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bartman Posted July 9, 2006 Share Posted July 9, 2006 I don't see any advantage to this setup. I thought the whole point in moving the alternator was to have a shorter belt with simplified routing. This system doesn't appear to deliver on either one. The Alan Grove mount has been discussed, and the consensus seems to be that it wpn't work on a Z.
