What Alternator brackets should I use to mount a 3g to a 351W?

Too bad an Explore serp kit is too much money right now.

Thanks
Martin

I have the stock v-belt setup from my 302. Used the 351 adapters at the head. The small case 3G is an exact physical replacement for the stock 60 amp 1G. The only thing necessary is to drill and tap the bottom hole for the adjuster bolt. Or just drill through and use a nut and bolt. I have seen the large case 3G mounted the same. The only difference is the adjuster is lower.

Thanks 70EB. I called the guy and I am getting the serp setup. It works out real well since I needed a core for my alt. $66 bucks for the core makes the serp setup $34.
