As far as what bracket to get, not sure, but if it does not fit your bracket, then they sold you the wrong one. the base 130a 3g should fit the old 1g and 2g brackets.

Need the bracket off of the sn-95? Will the bracket line right up or will it need some fab work?

When I upgraded to a 130 amp alternator I had to use a cut-off tool to grind my stock bracket. After that it fit great

Correct^^^

Ya'll check out my 3g walkthrough in the tech stickies. You have to grind the bracket in one place and it fits fine. Also, sn95's had 130A 3G standard.

You dont need the bracket from the SN95. The SN95 alt is physicly bigger, so you just have to grind down a bit from the stocker.
