I know the style of the brackets changed but do they interchange from a Poly to a LA engine ?

Obviously, the heads are different. So if the bracket bolts to the head, then no is probably the answer.
They say there are no such thing as a stupid question. They say there is always the exception that proves the rule. Don't be the exception.

The 65 poly 318 and LA 273 used the same alternator bracket, but had two sets of mounting holes, one for the 318 poly head, and the other for the 273 wedge head. The 1965 A/LA bracket will also bolt to a later 318/340/360 LA. But since the later LA brackets don't have both an A and LA bolt pattern, I wouldn't think they would work on the poly without modification.
Now whether a Denso alternator would work with a poly alternator bracket, if that's what you're asking, can't say.
