FE427 OEM Alternator Mounting Brackets?
HELP!
I have ERA chassis #446 with a FE 427 side oiler in it with what looks like a home made alternator mounting bracket. After seeing pics of Dan and Troy's 427 alternator brackets, I went on a search to find some OEM style brackets. Mine are made of ~1/4" aluminum cut to work. If I can't find a OEM style set I plan to remake my own, similar to the ones on the car but more refined (to say I'm "anal" (i.e. a perfectionist) is putting it lightly).
The problem is, I find two different styles. One is a little shorter than the other. I have them bookmarked on e-bay if pics are needed but I'm hoping one of you 427 owners (doesn't have to be a ERA) either has their alternator brackets on the bench, has pics of it, or can get pics of it in the car.
The top "arm" with the slider groove in it is pretty cut and dried. It's the lower bracket that I find two of. Both have two holes on the water pump end that look to be the same dimension but then the "snout" is either shorter or longer on the two.
Thanks a TON in advance,
Phill Pollard
