Just thought i'd ask yet another question relating to my inlet reversal.

I have trimmed the bracket, flipped the alternator over tightned everything up and have put on the belt and tensioned them up.

One thing I am concerned with is that I havent been able to secure the alternator on the left hand side of the vehicle (the side opposite the bracket)
See pics





Whats recommended here?

 

i dont think i can help you but who did the reversal for you ?

Did most of it myself. I cut the pipes, flipped the inlet, cut the alternator bracket and modified the throttle assembly.

The only external involvement was an engineering company which made the wedge piece for the throttle body , welded the wedge piece to the manifold and welded the pipe together.

More detailed pic can be foun on my project which is here: https://www.scoobynet.com/projects-4...c-2-0l-16.html

you need a properly engineered for the job bracket

 

anyone else??

 

Come on guys, surely someone can provide more info as to what they did here?

Have a look on 22b.com

project threads: project RA page 4 & you will see a clear picture of a bracket made to hold/support the alternator.

I used a cut down ali aircon bracket and a custom made S&N motorsport tensioner.
