The left pic is his old design, his new one is the one on the right. You could probable fab up the Mr. Gasket one but Jakes will make wire or opti changes easier. Plus it'll bolt right up and comes with all hardware including the belt! I have one very nice piece and 100% made in the USA!

Honestly if you want to relocate the alternator then you should contact Larry at SpeedInc. His brackets are really nice quality. Kevin with Machinehead Industry makes a great easy to install product. Here is a picture of mine relocated.

Looks nice! I just had a hard time swallowing the $ of that piece, nice one for sure though! As long as we on the topic here's mine:

Thanks man! I like yours as well. I got mine when they had a sale going on them so it was a decent amount less.
