I need an alternator bracket for my 5.0. It is obviously the passenger side top mount position.

I can't find any brackets at the junkyard, and I have an electric water pump so I dont think I can use any aftermarket ones that use water pump bolts.

I found a bracket that mounts in 3 holes on the head, but it is on a 5.8. I thought the heads were the same, so will this one work? the alternator is the same so I think it should?

Any help is appreciated. Anyone with a custom alt bracket give me some ideas/input.

I went and got one off of a 5.0 thunderbird. Mounts to the 3 holes in the head. It should be the same as the 351W backet but dont quote me on that. Here is a pic of what it looks like, I think I have more if u need some other shots of it.

Here ya go, will work with about any set-up. You can cut down or shim the bolts that go through the pump

If you are looking for a stock alt mount, I have mine for sale. With the tensioner, and notch cut in it for larger alt. Let me know.

Hmm that looks like it would work. What kind of crank pulley are you running, one with just 1 spot for a belt or 2 belt spots? If its 2, is the alternator run off of the one closest to the block? because the only reason why i'm having problems with this is because my new crank pulley has doesn't stick out as far as the old one?

Single slot crank pulley. Only running Alt waterpump and PS pump so I only need the one slot pulley. UDP underdrive pulleys from ebay are the ones im running.
