Default alt. bracket

I am in the middle of doing my ls mustang conversion and have a quick question that I have searched for several times and cant find it. I am not going to be running any a/c or p/s. I will be running the stock water pump, crank pulley and alternator. I read on here once that one guy used an aftermarket low mount type bracket for his alternator and I cannot find which one he used. I am also trying to figure out if I will any idlers or tensioners?

I have a set of black powdercoated alternator and tensioner brackets for sale that will position all the stuff with the correct offset and spacing so that you can run the all the accessories you want or DONT want. Alternator will be on top passenger side and idler/tensioner will be where the alternator used to be on the bottom drivers side, Its a real nice and proven setup, especially if you ever want to go turbo, it free's up ALOT of space for pipes and misc stuff...
*All you would have to do is buy these brackets from me and then i can help you figure out a new belt size since you are missing some accessories. ***Private message me for more info since i probably wont look into this thread again
thanks

I have this one for sale. It will allow you to run what you need without a tensioner.
