Default LT1 Alternator Relocation

I'm deleting my A/C and I'd like to move my alternator down to the bottom and retain my Power steering. Who sells the brackets/pulleys necessary to do this? I know Speed Inc does, but 399 dollars for a few brackets and pulleys is insane.

I think speed inc is your only option, unless you wanna fabricate something yourself.

honestly, the speed inc kit is very expensive, but the craftsmanship, quality, and looks are top notch. i think it's by far my favorite mod in my engine bay, it makes the world of difference, and looks 100X better than any other relocation i've ever seen.

I have a jakesz28 low mount alt. bracket and I moved the power steering to the passenger side on the bottom. I have the alt running off the stock piggy backed balancer and the power steering running off the underdrive crank pulley.
