Those are fantastic pictures but the setup looks top-drawer when the v-belts
are junked for serpentine. You would of course need a reverse water punp
and tensioner ( '68 Stang ) and pulleys which are factory-fit. Benefit besides
good looks are positive power transmission and no tensioning - after-all
who do you know that owns a tensioning guage? Hear those alternaor
bearings whining?

Sorry, guess I messed up copying and pasting that one link for the alternator bracket. Here was the correct link:

Everything looks good though, as far as I can tell.

One question though, on the slotted arm for the alternator, is it bent enough to touch the mounting face of the alternator, or do you have to put a little pressure to get the bolt threaded?
