Alternator conversion

2003-07-02 by followsw

Hi,

I've been lurking on this list for a while, but have the need for 
some group expertise. I'd like to change the dynamo on my 1970 V6 for 
an alternator. The wiring part of it is fine, but I'm having problems 
getting the alternator low enough to avoid fouling the bonnet. 

I've been trying to use a standard ford alloy alternator braket but 
it leaves the alternator too high up.

Anyone else found a suitable alternative, or is it fabricate my own/ 
modify the dynamo mount time?

Thanks in advance

Will
