[Tigers] Mini-Alternator work

[65tiger at comcast.net]

Hi Tony,
I did something similar but mounted the alternator to the driver's side
head (better set back for more room).  I used a March adjustment rod
for the tensioner (not the bolt shown for fitting).  Attached are two photos, 
one with the alternator off to the side and one mounted at the head height.  
I had to go with the later for clearances.  I used the Edelbrock water pump
which worked very well.  
Nice pictures!
