The onlt thing that I feel is out of place on my car is that big ugly alternator hanging off the the side. Yesterday I got a a generator, it came off a 58 sbc, so how do I mount this thing? The original mount is ont the ram horn headers, Does someone make a aftermaket bracket that can help me out.
My fav.... Jitney Jake. http://www.waldenspeedshop.com/jitney.html# Works perfect and keeps the gen. where it should be.
Yeah thats the problem with gens, the mounting bracketry is weak & the header adaptor mount, sucks even more.
wouldnt the best move to just get a rams horn with the mount on it ... assuming yours has been ground off
No, he has those "me too me too, I wanna be one of the cool guys headers in it". I'd just spring for the bracket from Jake and be done with. Well I wouldn't as I'd low mount the alternator and paint the case either engine accessory black or the same color as the engine and go on about my business.
Am I all screwed up? .. looks like the red coupe already has a gen (small screen might be wrong) and the sedan is a nailhead ... but yeah, stick with the goodies you got
I made an ALTERNATOR bracket out of some scrap & out of the way(hidden) & later I'm going to paint the ALTERNATOR black to really make it disappear.
