Here's one way a small alternator can be mounted on a Renesis:
* 60 amp Delco alternator (8 lbs)
* Brackets made from 0.10 4130
* the upper bracket uses 2 existing 8mm and 2 existing 6mm holes in the
block
* the lower bracket uses 3 8mm studs in the front housing (is this part
of the housing strong enough?)
* Alternator slide adjuster cut down from stock Rensis part
* 12mm, 4" diameter idler pulley
* Stock water pump pulley used to underdrive the alternator
* Very ugly welding 8-)

Scott,
Looks like a very good solution to me. Let me ask one question. Since
the alternator is adjustable, is the idler really necessary?
