Turbo Conversion Alternator Relocation

[LemansWagon]

Got a 79 Lemans Wagon that I am converting to a blow through carb turbo. I'm using 86-87 headers so I need to relocate the alternator. Any simple suggestions? I have the original 79 N/A accessory brackets & pullies (no a/c) as well as the complete n/a accessory setup from the 84 donor engine (no a/c). Obviously neither will currently work since the alternator sits right where the turbo will.

I can fabricate so I am open to all kinds of options. Let 'em fly!

that would preclude the use of a distributor without a lot of hacking. The champion eliminator brackets would be the simplest but they are't cheap. If you can fabricate well, I'd look to duplicate a simular mounting arangement.

Have any photos of how the champion bracket that retains teh power steering looks mounted on an engine? Only photos I can find are of the bracket only and it's hard to tell how it mounts.

We used a Moroso SBC bracket on the Cutlass. Just had to drill a new hole in the bracket to bolt to the Buick head, and cut some spacers.
