Question on Alternator Mounts
I'm having an issues with my alternato bely on my Stage 2 motor. The current setup as follows.
PT 76 on Passenger Side Lower Drivers side is dry sump Upper Drivers side is Powermaster Alternator I have 2 cog belts - one for dry sump and one for Alternator Waterpump is electric. The Alternator belt keeps walking to the front of the pully. We had to custome fab some brackets. I was wondering what others with a stage 2 are doing for the alternator and mount. Thanks Joe

I kept my P/S and went with a Champion Bracket and some Jones Racing Products pulleys. Nothing was fabbed on my set up just re-arranged. The only thing that I need to fab up is the mount for the external 3 stage wet vac pump from Johnson that's going on the passenger side.
The alternator and P/S pulleys and belt is radius tooth. I take some pics Friday of the set up. Billy T. gnxtc2@aol.com |

I used a Champion P/S - AC delete bracket. Mounted the P/S bracket flush with piece that attaches to the head. The pivot point has a longer bolt so I can attach the little bracket that adjusts the alternator (forgot to take a pic of it).
The stock GN P/S pump runs backwards. I bought an aluminum body P/S pump from Jones Racing Products along with their radius tooth pulleys and belt. The 3 stage wet vac external pump is going on the passenger side below the turbo. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Billy T. gnxtc2@aol.com |

The front cover and belt drive is from Mike Boeher (BlownV6), a Danny Bee piece I believe. He also can modify your distributor to run off the front of the cam.
There was a thread on here about a month ago by Mike (BlownV6) getting a count to make some more belt drive setups. If you want in, get ahold of him. Billy T. gnxtc2@aol.com |

I'm not rushing anything. With the season almost to the end, I will probably drop it in and have it ready for the beginning of the year. Probably drive it on the street in the cool fall weather and have some fun
before the snow sets in.Thanks to all Billy T. gnxtc2@aol.com |
