LSX alternator relocation kit
That plastic cooling duct is necessary for maximum life out of the alternator. GM put it there for a reason.
Any electronic circuit that lives in a hot, dusty, wet, and/or humid environment that has its foreign particle protection and its cooling system compromised is going to have a shorter life span than if it had these things in place.
Examples:
Xbox360's overheating causing red ring of death.
Desktop computers with clogged air vents.
I don't believe that a case study is required to make the statement that I made, but if you feel strongly that I made the statement in error I will remove it.
thanks for reading,
Rob

new pictures of more alternators that are compatible added to first post.
Check it out you might laugh when you see an old school CS130 alt on an ls1.

HI: Thanks for the quick response testing it out for us with the old school alternator. A nice 140 amp polished one would look good on that bracket plus they are cheaper than Fbody ones. Nice work and good luck to you.

Got the (i think first bracket made)!
My mid 90's suburban alternator wasnt doing the job, voltage was always really low and my belt alignment wasnt very great.
I got a 145A truck alternator and used this Modular Turbo bracket. I have nasty nate fuel rails and just had to replace the passenger front rail fuel fitting with an NPT 90 to hose end fitting.
The bracket was well put together, seems really sturdy. Nice adjustable tensioner. No more belt squeal. So far so good.
I probably didnt need to modify the alternator back plastic cover but chose to for possible belt tightening.
14.0Volts FTW!! Nice work guys, thanks for the quick ship!

Yep you got the first one LOL
kick F'in *** I love those pics.
Also yes the rectifier bridge cooling cover does need to be trimmed in certain installations.
CBR Performance innovation + Modular Turbo customer service = F body excellence
How much power did you make on the dyno Friday?
What rpm did you take it too?
