[Roadsters] FW: How to move alternator from driver to passenger side

I believe that there is also another piece needed for the bottom bolt, 
the triangular plate that mounts to the timing chain cover and the front 
of the lower pivot bolt on the alternator. Is this supposed to be there, 
or am I thinking about a different engine?

Peace,
Pat
