I am wanting tocmount a gm alternator to my 52 flathead v8 f3,original engine,pulleys,water pumps.I have seen several aftermarket brackets,but they seem to hint at a car application.Will these work on my truck setup? All of the original brackets are there,any ideas on modifying these?

 

Welcome to the club . All the aftermarket mounts I have seen are much the same just a choice of paint grade or really crappy chrome .

 

You may consider this package from MAC'S auto parts. I have it on my 1949 F1, and it was a great addition. It is internally regulated, so you don't have to worry about finding a place to mount one. I am sure that they can just sell the mount if you already have the alternator. Good luck!

I bought the bracket and alternator from these folks a few years back and it fit and worked perfect. Ford Flathead 1933 53 Alternator Conversion | eBay

 

Thanks guys,i already have the alt.,i read somewhere that the pulley from the original generator would fit my alternator,any input on that?

 

Maybe ya can buy the pulley from the same place as ya get the bracket?

 

Worth checking to

 

your pulley will fit on gm alt.
I grinded the mounting locations off my gm alt and kind of rounded off the whole alt.
then i made a new strap for the orinaginal location cause the original gen is smaller in diameter .
will try to post a pic later
