Its a bracket from ICT Billet. It mounts the alternator in the F body place, but at the Corvette belt line. I have a ATI Corvette damper not installed yet.

The mounts, Cadillac pan, and headers fit great in the car. I went that route for choice of headers. I used a 1 7/8 to 2 inch step header they make. The problem was they wouldnt work with my trans. So I sold the set up

I remember when you had the all motor/nitrous combo! That was a SUPER clean set-up!

I'm sure this one will be as well!
