Here is what I came up with. It is made

from 1/4" aluminum plate, with a 1" square aluminum piece welded on
at the bottom which snugly fits between the alternator ears.
I had a 90 degree aluminum angle welded on at the top to which the
stock alternator adjustment arm is bolted to.

Paul C:

Observe that alternator brackets fail rather quickly.  This may be due to
the heavy cyclic loads created from the belt vibration, and out-of-round
pully's.

Consider replacing the Al angle bracket with a rubber barry mount type
snubber - to allow some movement.  My Porsch 911 uses this scheme.

Twist the steel bracket end, and sandwich it between two ~1 inch thk rubber
donuts/washer with a through bolt to the Al plate.
