Beater, yes the PS bracket is stock and the alternator is stock also, I have even tried a couple of different inline alt brackets 250 etc but they all land it in the same spot. I have seen that bracket on ebay and have thought about it but I have 4 stock ones and I am still not convinced that is my problem. I will take some pics today and measure the WP pulley.. I am just not understanding why this has to be so hard.. want to fire it up! Pics shortly
