My buddy uses the front motor plate itself as the mount for his vacuum pump. I am sure you could do the same with an alternator. You would need access to a bridgeport or something similar to machine the adjustment slot into the plate, but it should work. Run a mandrel on the crank snout and then shim the pullies until they are in alignment. This is on a race car with a SBC, but it works just fine for the vacuum pump. Might be worth considering???
