I'm waiting on brackets to arrive as I'm using and ls2 water pump and vette balancer on my l33 for its swap into a first gen 4runner (if yall are ever on pirate4x4 you've probably seen some of my crys for help) Anyway I ordered some brackets to pull the accessories back closer to the block. They haven't arrived yet and just monkeying around I realized that the truck alternator lines up perfectly with two bolt holes on the block, and just needs what looks like a 3/8ths spacer. Any reason not to run this? Light and eliminates parts...

No, but I see no reason it wouldn't work for you as long as you have adequate "belt wrap" and some type of tensioning device...

I did something similar with the cylinder head bolt holes. I was surprise how much the bolts deflected though. I added a support off one of the front bolt heads to keep the pulley in line.
