Hi Daryl,
I went to my archived messages to find the info on the hook up and it's
gone. Not to fear though. Just contact Dan Masters. He's the guy who
helped me with mine.
You'll have to fabricate a bracket to hang the alternator from. Mine has
two arms that come off the engine at a 45 degree angle for about 3" and
then turns parallel with the ground for about 2" more. There is a piece
that is welded to both of them to stabilize both of them. The alternator
is hung from the bracket and hangs straight down. I added about 3" to
the adjustment bracket and reused it. Dan can be reached at
DANMAS@aol.com. He's very knowledgable about LBC electronics. Sorry I
lost that info. Let me know if Dan can help.
