While we are shooting the breeze here, some of you may notice an issue I have with my Alt bracket. As you can see in the pic I have used up all the adjustment I have on the slider and still have a loose belt. I have tried using the next size smaller belt which gives me enough room to tighten the belt but makes the power steering belt then rub the bolt on the Alt pulley. So I think I have only 2 options.
1. try and find someone with a machine shop who can extend the channel on the bracket.
2. Use the smaller belt and put a double groove pulley on the Alt and let the power steering belt ride on that pulley as well.
3. Put a couple of 1" spacers between the block and the Alt bracket thus moving the entire unit out further from the power steering belt.
Anybody got any other ideas???????
