This CVF Racing bracket mounts the alternator mid height on the passenger side of a 1969 and later Ford 289 or 302 small block that uses a water pump with the lower radiator hose on the driver's side. It works with V-belt or serpentine drives and accepts OEM or CVF Racing pulleys.
Ford used two alternator locations depending on the accessories fitted. This bracket uses the "Power Steering" or "A/C" location, which sits closer to the engine than the "Alternator Only" location, so CVF recommends checking pulley selection with them for alternator only setups.
