I am not up with the times electronically, but you are welcome to come by my place to look at how the bracket goes. I am in charlotte, on the east side, near mint hill. i can text a pic if need be. pm me if you would like.

the upper (triangular) alt bracket attaches to the left side of the water pump. it is easy to line it up. just use a long dowel or the original long threaded rod to line the end that attaches to the alternator up to the hole in the cylinder head. just leave the alternator aside and match the hole in the head up. the bolt holes in the water pump will be easy to match up from there. the lower bracket attaches to the lone hole near the water inlet for the pump.
