HAHA that bracket up top is crazy. Basically the same thing that speed inc sells (only theirs looks WAY, WAY better) without the $400 price tag. You have my interest and I will be doing this mod soon, I don't need A/C anyway.

Did you just use the stock alternator and a basic idler pulley from a parts store? I know this thread is as old as the forum, but anyone have any info?

Check SpeedInc they already have 3 setups with polished brackets, one kit deletes the ac and ps, the second deletes ac only and the third kit (the one I have) keeps everything but moves the alt to drivers side lower where the smog pump would go.

This is what I'd like to have, but not sure I could afford the Speedinc. kit even if it was in production. Has anyone fabbed up something that does this same thing at home?
