IMCO Alternator/Power Steering Bracket
#1
I've got a basically new IMCO alternator/power steering relocation bracket to let go of. Black powercoat. It'll make more room available for the left-side manifold. It is supposed to use factory belts, etc.
I was going to use it on one of my builds but went a different direction at the time so it's just sitting.
$100 plus the ride.

Bolts to lower gen 6 454 block, correct? How much lower in your estimate does it place the P/S pump and Alt.?
my pump is too close to my ETop headers distr tube inlet? A pic would be awesome, ( of mounted status)
Thanks

This would be for use with v-belts. If you’re using the serpentine set up, it won’t work.
Honestly, I’m not sure of how much lower it places everything. It’s low enough to clear IMCO’s manifold. I’d assume it would do the same for your header.
I have etops on my 509s with the serpentine set up and they clear fine. What’s not clearing on yours?

Yes have the V-belts, mercruiser setup , the pressure hose elbow off my power steering pump, blocks the water hose from intake to my E-tops.
I found a couple pics of it mounted, and it looks like it will work for my engine.

Appreciate your time and feedback, Sooo, after a little more research, found out the bracket sets the alternator so low, it wont cleat the stringer, so back to the drawing board, currently Im looking at a way to cleanly route my Intake mani housing to header dist tube hose. instead, currently I believe what I have is a Mercruiser P/W strng and ALT. bracket, which sets the P/W pump up high by #1 cylinder just in front of my header, and the pressure hose coming from backside on the pump, kinda pinches that hose.
