This CVF Racing bracket mounts the alternator mid height on the passenger side of a Ford 289 or 302 small block that uses the early water pump with the lower radiator hose on the passenger side. CVF lists it for 1965 through 1968 engines and for newer engines converted to the early 289 style pump.
It works with V-belt or serpentine drives and OEM or CVF Racing pulleys. The bracket uses the Ford "Power Steering" or "A/C" alternator location, which is closer to the engine than the "Alternator Only" location, so CVF asks alternator only users to confirm pulley selection.

FAQ

It fits Ford 289 and 302 small blocks from 1965 through 1968, or later engines converted to the early passenger side lower hose water pump.
Where does it put the alternator?
The alternator sits mid height on the passenger side in the Ford "Power Steering" or "A/C" location.
Can it be used with a serpentine drive?
