Exclamation Needing Alternator Mounting Ideas....
Needing an alternator mount. I am trying to keep this as light as possible up front. Car will not have power steering and has the stock water pump. Any ideas? I know people have done it. I seen someone on here a couple months ago that done it. Moved it over to passenger side or something.

Speed Inc sells a alternator kit that relocates the alternator to the passenger side that you may want to look at. But you have to use a different alternator, the stock f-body one won't fit. They have a pic of it on their website and sell it as a complete kit with the alternator too.

I thought about about just making my own. I have access to everything. Just needing to know what I need to do about a tensioner.

That is correct to use our bracket it would require an electric water pump.

I wish there was a way to make the BMR work. I would like it down there.

Why can you not run it on there anyway?

Ah, nevermind. Forgot about the tensioner. Is there another place place I could mount the tensioner?
