the modular/cbr performance one is great, comes with a belt if you tell them what you are running

we just threw it on a 6.0 turbo powered 2002 ws6 with power steering

I had the spoolin' performance one. Tossed the belt twice. I ended up shimming the tensioner bracket and that fixed the problem. Going with the alt in the stock location this time around though.

What kit you doing? I say try to make it work in the factory location, it looks WAY better this way, if the kit is built right it's doable.

I'm in a similar situation, but I want a low mount alt on the driver side for use with the truck accessories. I'll probably just go with a custom unit unless I find something that's fairly priced and what I'm looking for.
