    ls alternator location

    Where are people locating the alternator? I just got the engine in and the stock Alt isn't going to fit in the lower area on either side (which is my first choice). I've been looking on ebay for different brackets but I'm not crazy with the selection.

    Whats your engine your using? Alternator placement depends on the engine, my 2013 5L has 2 places it can be installed, I ended up using the location that FFR suggests, get us your spec and we can help.
