Unfortunatly the Vette alternator is bigger and will not fit in the Camaro bracketry without switching to the Vette bracket, which then requires the the Vette power-steering pump,air conditioning compressor & dampner/pulley which are all approximately 3/4" in closer to the engine block for steering clearance on the Vettes. I have heard of bolting up the smaller Camaro alternator to the Vette bracket with some spacers. Hope this helps. Ed

Yup, what he said. I tried to do nearly the same thing and realized they are totally different sizes.
