Antonio,

What is the brand or other information on the bracket?

I am about ready to do this conversion too.  I am gathering parts and
information now.

I spent about two hours yesterday looking to see if anyone made a bracket.

Thanks,

| I got a new chrome alternator to replace the original generator on my
truck,
| I also got a new wiring  harness from Chevy Duty that is specially made
for
| alternator conversion. The truck is a '53 1/2 ton AD with a '57 235 car
| engine. The question is:
| I noticed that the alternator fan has an arrow indicating the direction of
| the rotation, Will the new alternator rotate on the same direction as the
| generator? or should I reverse the location of the alternator?. The
original
| generator was mounted on the manifold side of the engine and seems like it
| is the only logical location for it. I was able to find an alternator
| bracket at the  local speed shop, this bracket fits perfectly and I will
not
| need to hack the original generator mounting bracket.
