Default Name this alternator bracket

What alternator bracket is this, with the tensioner?


I will only be running a alternator off the crank. Factory LQ4 alt. it's perfect for what I need!

Electric radiator mounted water pump, manual steering and no AC or heat.

It mounts the alternator in the same position, instead of using that tensioner it comes with an adjustable bar support for the alternator and that's how you tension the serpentine belt.

The one you posted first doesnt seem like it would tension properly with the tensioner there right below the alternator.

I am making a billet alternator bracket that mounts to the head basically. I am running 05+ corvette balancer and water pump on an lq4 with truck alternator only. It is going to mount to the driver side and incorporate a idler to improve belt wrap unlike the dirty dingo one.

So you are not running a dummy pulley on water pump?

No, my water pump is mounted to the radiator.

Basically will look like this!


The only thing on the block will be the hoses running to the AN fitting water pump adapter brackets.
