Default Alternator options for 1968 Camaro

Hey gang I’m doing an LS2 swap into a 68 Camaro using the Holley style brackets and discovered my low mount GTO alternator will not fit. I found this alternator online that says it’s smaller but wondering if someone has tried it or knows of another solution for me. I’m using 2006 GTO accessories.

I ended up using the ICT Billet high mount corvette style accessory bracket. I found a few that would mount alternator on passenger side but then that would possibly interfere with future A/C installation.

I used a factory LS1 alternator, on my 2005 GTO stock belt system. Not sure if with how your system is routed it would work, but I have had no issues.

What motor mounts did you use? I used the Holley mount style to get the motor as low as possible and the factory setup was not close to fitting. I ended up with ICT billet bracket so it's now the corvette style accessories.

I run truck spacing, and a truck alternator high mounted on passenger side. ICT bracketry.
