Default FBody Alternator VS Truck Alternator Dimensions

Does anybody have a side by side comparision of the FBody vs Truck Alternator? I am looking for some good numbers on dimensions or a clear side-by-side picture. The reason I am looking for this is due to very close clearences with my LQ4, truck acccesseries, truck intake, 2nd Gen Trans Am swap.
Thanks

There are two different physical sizes of alternator used on trucks. Im not sure on the ratings but there's a big one and a smaller one. The big one wont fit an f body accessory drive, but the smaller one will. The small one is identical to the f body one with the exception of where the small rear bracket bolts on isn't on the truck alternator. You don't really need it though. I've had a.truck alternator on my ls1 for thousands of miles with no problems.
