I saw that but thanks for mentioning it. I have a cast iron housing sitting on the shelf to replace it if I need to. I'm going to inspect it really close tonight!

Front of motor with new (made in USA) pulley and alternator bracket from 440 source. Very nice pieces and fit perfectly!

Alternator is old unit for mock up only.

I'm using allen head black oxide bolts for the water pump housing, bottom pulley and intake manifold for a different look. I may switch out some of the smaller bolts like the valley tray end pieces as well.
