    For 350 motor - Alternator upper Bracket - $25 plus shipping in the US or can deliver to the Nationals.

    Pretty sure this is for a 1970 350 motor as I pulled from junkyard a while back. No numbers, please double check as I haven't been able to find a good reference.

    Blasted and painted

    Would you mind measuring the distance from the bolt hole to the adjustment hole? The bracket on my 350 is not quite lining up and the bracket I purchased from another member is too large....
    thanks, Jonathan

    Thank you for measuring. The brackey I have appears to be the same as yours, though it is a little off at the top bracket. Would you tell me on your 350 what is the vbelt routing for the air compressor? IMG_7485.jpeg IMG_7485.jpeg

    @jkat - I have a 455 so not sure about the 350. I pulled these brackets from a junkyard car a few years back and used the other pieces as they were common. I did find this picture in the assembly manual which looks like 350/455 have the same belt routing. I know had had to buy a longer belt in mine to fit that what was recommended. just the next size up worked.

    Thank you for the info! Everything lines up except for the top of the bracket. Guess that will be why the a/c belt won't be touching the alt pulley. I will sort it out later; I'm in Houston and need to get the a/c working.
