66 NJ Alt Mount
« on: November 08, 2012, 11:40:28 PM »
Was labeling and prepping some pictures to post and I noticed this alternator bracket - anyone ever see one before?

Cast bracket in place of the spacer between alternator and head as well as cast upper mount between alternator and water pump.

Car info - 66 NJ V8 auto car with a dealer installed (generic not the typical Mustang style kit) AC

     Definitely a novelty and I have never seen one before.  Looks like it was made to fit/work right there.    Thanks for sharing.  Brian

Jeff,
I knew I had seen it somewhere so I started to look in Mannels book. On page 7-40 it is shown in picture "a" of AC and related mounts for the newly introduced "bottom line, economy" hang on AC. Mannel mention it was a system chosen by few customers.

Here is a couple of shots of the associated "generic" AC head unit" to this alternator mount
