Thanks for the link. Yeah... I realized the thing about the alternator after looking at some online pics when I was thinking about making a custom bracket. Luckily, the new wire harness wires will be much longer than need when I move it to the driver's side and I didn't cut off any of the A/C wires so I should be all good there.

Another bit of luck is that my power steering pump is out of alignment because the bracket is junk and if I use one of these aftermarket brackets it will include the mount for that as well. This would have all been fairly easy had the heads included the tapped holes. I almost bought a new set - maybe I should have.

Anyway... live and learn.
