The alternator can go either below, or above (stock location). If you want to make one, get some dimensions and do it. But several companies sell them reasonable prices (~$100). 7279635-Engine_in_car1crop.jpg (73 downloads)

All though this type isn't as trick looking, it depends what you have to mount. There's a lot of room for stuff. Not to mention you can tie it to down bars (which I should have done).
