I think I have a set from my 74 GTO's 350 (since I replaced it with a
455) so I'll look (you know how I hoard this stuff and never throw
anything away ;-)) to see if I have them.

Thanks. I would need the bracket set up as well.
I played with using nuts as spacers between the mounting block and
head. They're about 3/8" and it brought them out to exactly where
they need to be. Also, I put the same nut spacer in between the Alt
and the Alt arm brackets so those would remain in their natural
position, i.e. no bending. As expected the 5 1/2" long bolt will
need to be replaced with a 6" bolt. Not sure if HD or my local
surplus store sells these but this would definitely be the cheapest
and easiest fix. It doesn't look horrible but it doesn't look right
either. I may use this set up just to break the engine in while I
keep my eye out for a reasonable set of 71' to 75' Alt/PS bracket
set up on e-bay, etc. If anyone has a set they don't need/want to
sell, please let me know off the list.
Thanks,
Sheen
