We needed a relatively decent output alternator (110 amps), but in a smaller case. We wanted to stay with a GM alternator, as they are readily available. The best solution we found was a CS130 alternator. The CS130 alternator is mounted very low, you can just see it above the A-arm bushing. This alternator fits a P35 Van, with a 454 engine. I'm always surprised how long it takes to just do a simple thing like getting the alternator mounted.

New alternator brackets to mount CS130 alternator on lower passenger side of motor. Very tight fit. Just enough room to adjust for belt tension on a 4 groove serpentine belt.
