Default Alternator relocation for T-60 kit

I am buying a used Turbotechnology T-60 kit from someone. He is keeping the bracket that mounts the alternator on the top pass. side of the motor. Where can I get a bracket to mount my alt.? Does Turbotech. sell them? Also how much boost does the T-60 kit produce and would I need to do an immediate fuel system upgrade or can I get away with running low boost on stock fuel system? Any help would be appreciated. Thx.

Sorry for so many questions just trying to get my ducks in a row.

Don't bother calling Turbotech. They quoted me around $300 for it because it is a "custom piece". Riiiiight.

There are 2 options I know of for you. 1 you can try a universal bracket from summit or such. Or the place instlling my stuff has a pretty damn good fabricator that can make you a copy of mine.

You could call Rob at QMP. His kit includes the relocation bracket that puts it on the top passenger side. I have no idea how much he will charge you for it or if he will even sell that individual piece.

talk the guy who sold you the kit in getting the alt relocator, there is no reason he needs it now right?
if need be swap him the parts he needs to put it back on. youll need it and its $300 new

you could probably get awaywith running 4-5psi and not do a fuel upgrade right away. you will probably need injectors first. then fuel pump.

Well I appreciate all of the help you all have given. I called QMP and there bracket is $125. The guy that Im getting the kit is going twin turbo so he needs his.

Well the one I have relocates the tensioner pully as well from what I've been told. I don't have things in front of me since I am having the work done. As to how much I paid, I didn't end up paying anything since I finally got ahold of the guy I bought my turbo kit from and got that one. The guy I'm talking about blueprinted how to make one off mine. For price I'll PM you the info since they are not an advertiser.
