    Why cant you run the stock Mustang 5.0L alternator bracket? Fits good and will line up with your w/p and crank pulley perfect....

    1972 mercury comet with a maverick front end. It has a 1992 5.0 motor in it.
    Your right i could, but its real big and bulky. I want to put it down low also, and the stock one puts it up high.

    with that water pump and timing cover your best bet is to put it up high and run a fox body ac eliminator bracket and foxbody tensioner... march has a good set up if you check out the site... cleans the accessory drive appearance up also
