I made my own for under forty bucks. It took me a little time to get it right, but it turned out pretty nice.

I have the MADMAN bracket. Nice and easy to set up. Makes changing plugs easier also. You can get one @ Speed Inc.

Yes, it deletes the AC and PS. There are brackets out there that move the PS to the driver side if you want to keep it. There was thread a while back with some good pics.

The Mad Man or SJM leave you with an alternator and crank pulley only. The bracket is slotted to adjust for belt tension.

no A/C
no PS
no cast mounting bracket

basically a race setup, but really cleans up the engine bay

I used the same bracket that holds the A/C, Alternator and P/S pump and cut it down. Then made two brackets to hold the Alternator in place.

Do you have to take the PS off completely or can i just buy the bracket and bolt the alternator in the place of the ac compressor.
