Alternators work best up high where they avoid more of the road splash that can corrode their parts and connections.

Eric & I very busy with 90+ forums to watch over.
We get back to threads we posted in, sometimes 5 minutes sometimes 5 hours, once in a while 5 days

There are couple of things you can do but, they both require a visit to a wrecking yard.

The differences are the large mounting bracket & aluminium Spacers.
The major problem will be with mounting the main bracket on the block/head.
The water pump is cruical to this also.

The wrecking yard is still the place to go though
