    Alt. relocation

    Anyone move there alt. to the A/C area? If so any pics? And did you add an idler pulley in the back where the alt. use to be?

              Swap the a/c with the alt. if there's enough clearance.

                  There isn't. Besides, if you have the cooling vent on your alternator it should be fine anyway. Most alternators fail because the vent is missing.
                  I may own a GTO now, but I'm still a 60V6er at heart.

                          The highoutput Alt. I have doesn't have the option for the cooling duct. It's all plastic. The front is going to be cooler than the back anyways. I have heard that it has been done so why not do it?
