LT1 Alt with Tall Valve Covers
I know you need to grind away part of the alternator:
In particular on that "ear" piece, my alt has the end of a bolt sticking out... Seems like I shouldn't just grind that away but I kind of have to?
Just making sure that's what I need to do...

Most people that have those valve covers relocate their alternator.

I use those with every damn bolt and all factory Acc. Tape off any holes into the alt. then grind away the area in the picture in you original post plus a tad off near the bearing. some times you need to take some off near the bearing sometimes you dont. I just ground a little and then test fitted it on the car. if it didn't fit I ground a bit more, and test fit it again. It takes about 15 20min. You are also going to have to grind down one of the regulator bolts flat
