yap..

 

ha...i like the little smily face....that just made my day.Thanks for the response.

 

I just put one on about a week ago that looked identical to that but it was the Summit brand. Seems nice and looks cool. Good luck

 

Ya,its gotta be better than the tensioner from autozone for the stock replacement,I know it will look alot better. Do you need a shorter belt by chance?

 

Alright so problem,the bolt that runs through the bottom of the alt. and into the head is to small for the threads in my head. Helicoil??or any other ideas????

 

...anything?

 

What size is the bolt? Mine worked fine with Edelbrock heads, but I had to shorten it some. How does the alternater spacer fit over the problem bolt? Could a bigger bolt fit through it?



What accesories are you using? I used this bracket, but flipped the alternator around to make it a "mid-mount." I have crank, alt, and WP and ended up using a 41" belt. Good luck

 

See my stock alt. bracket had a huge bolt holding it on the head along with two other bolts with 1/2 in heads on them,the big bolt has a 15/16 head on it if I remember right. But a bigger bolt wont fit through the alt. I have powersteering,water pump,alt. Ive got some sort of ideas in my head,well helicoil being one. Also didnt know if anyone else ran into this problem?

 

Thats odd...can you post any pics? My heads also had 1 larger bolt and 2 smaller ones but the kit worked fine for me. I dont have many ideas; I was hoping the large bolt would fit through the spacer..has anyone used a helicoil to reduce the size of a threaded hole?
