Yes. Cast iron does not bend. First check pulley to pulley alignment for parallelism them shim the gaps between bracket and generator. Do not over tighten the big fat original belt on the 4 cyl. dave

Yes and the problem started back on the Austin 16 around 1947. This bracket was strengthened twice with a strip welded along the generator side. First a light strip and then a thicker one as we know

I really should stop looking ... The generator pulley moves in/out ( with the shaft ) about a 1/16th of an inch. It also moves up/down enough to click, and strangely ( to me ) not left/right. _______
