I'm ready with $$$!
I don't really care which option you go with, but I think you would sell the most with the cheapest option to the end user, unless the complete custom mount looks THAT good...

Oh and thanks for doing this!

no problem

I do think the custom alt bracket while using the stock acc. bracket modified will be the real seller. The custom acc. bracket will be similar to the current alt/ps billet brackets with the options of polished or satin.

I will try to get a little update out here later this evening.

Any news Larry?
Will this still be in the $400 price range with the billet acc bracket?
How much would a modified stock bracket even save versus the billet bracket?
I am ready to put this on my car NOW!!! I have some nice valve covers to put on my LT4 once the alternator is moved.

alternator bracket is done

just found a A/C compressor and should have the PS/ AC bracket worked on within the couple weeks

price we are trying to keep under $450 shipped

stock bracket cut v's a custom billet bracket would save a lot of $...not a weight factor. This is just an offer since some can't spend the big money.

If this is around $450 shipped complete, using all of our stock accessories (PS Pump, Alternator, AC, and hopefully lines) and includes a complete new billet acc mount, new alternator mount, and tensioner(s) I would buy right now.
The only thing we should have to do is run a new power line from the Alternator to the battery, and extent the sensor wire for the alternator?
Are you planning to keep the AC and PS in the stock or near stock location with this setup?

yes the plan is to keep the PS & A/C in near stock locations to make use of stock lines

alternator would require the extension of the power and plug

belt, billet brackets, grade 8 hardware all included

BTW : I sent you an email.

The second kit is our alternator & power steering relocation kit which comes with billet brackets, custom tensioner, grade 8 hardware, belt and detailed instructions. The unit keep the PS pump very close to the stock location, so the stock lines and reservoir can be used. The same goes here to lengthen the alternator wires.

$347.99 shipped in polished

$319.99 shipped in satin

No problem, I needed to replace my factory belt tensioner any way for maintenance reasons. Plus, I won’t have to monkey around with taking the alternator off every time I need to get the passenger side valve cover off. I’ll be using the same Cantons as the red LT1 you posted.
