The bracket is VERY easy to make, and I believe you will need to change the tensioner pulley to a grooved one. I "May" have a small Alt, bracket and pulley to sell, I'll know for sure in about a week.

No one.....The few that where have either folded or moved on. Easy enough to make ur own with basic tools.

I just purchased and installed the lower alt. bracket and pulley idler kit from West Coast Fiero, it looks great, and fits just right on my 88GT with the 3800 SC engine swap. Closest one I've seen to what a factory look would be for these. Little more expensive, but to me it was worth it not to have to cobble something together, also made of aluminum which I preferred also. Curtis

i am intrigued by the idea of putting the alternator in the spot where the AC was. Has anybody done this? And do you have pics?
