Hey all,

I'm looking into mounting my alternator to the frame, not the motor (SBC btw). The frame is in the way for mid or low mounts, so I'm stuck with the alternator waving high in the air or WAY off to the side (and still high).

Given we have a solid mounted motor, I'm thinking it'll work.. and as far as I know, alternators can spin either way. (The fan is directional, sure, but mine is open to the elements, I'm not worried about cooling)

Anyone done this?

Lower is better for roll center too, these things aren't light

This is my planned location.

Thoughts?
