Now have the bolts, spacer and washers and have managed to (bodge) fit the alternator into place.
Not the most asthetic piece of engineering I'm afraid, however the Spitfire alternator brackets or quite hard to source and as a result quite expensive!
Everything is nice and tight and the belt run is pretty straight
Could probably do with a slightly longer belt I think, had a look in Halford's today and the only ones available were either the same length or the 1500mm (a bit too long). I'll go with the original for the time being.
I now need to fashion a little piece of aluminum or steel into an extension for the fan belt adjusting bracket, and then I will then complete the wiring.
Watch this space!!
