    Move the alternator lower

    I have a Mark II with a stock 302 EFI from an 1988 Mustang and making some changes. I am removing the stock EFI and replacing it with the Holley Sniper setup. One change I would like to make is to move the alternator from up high (where is is close to my water line) down to where the air pump is (I am pulling out the air pump).

    I am looking for a new bracket or advice from anyone that has done something like this.

    Thanks,
    Rich

    Look for an alternator bracket for an early car - 60's Mustang - anything with a 289 or 302 mounted the alternator down low on the PS.

    From Speed Doctor Racing Components on Facebook, like $110 or something close to that. Expensive but could not find anything else.
