Hi all.  I'm wondering if anyone knows anything about the alternator/belt
adjustment bracket of the MKII Tiger.  I have the original MKII alternator
bracket, but my flat adjustment bracket/bar that seems to be the wrong one.
I think it's a bit short and angled wrong because it seems to interfere with
the alternator fan.  Does anyone know which part would interchange (Ford
Falcon/Mustang/Galaxie, etc.  Anyone?  Thanks in advance for the
information.
