You have to drill/tap the block for the top alternator bolt. There will be only 2 alternator bolts used instead of the 3, but 2 will hold it plenty (there is no 3rd hole on the block, its the shortest bolt on the alternator bracket). The battery ground hole is not above the starter like the aluminum block is, but you can use a nearby motor mount bolt for the ground. Pretty much bolts in though otherwise.
