I have a '91 5.0 Convertible. Can someone tell me which way the top alternator bolt (next to the upper radiator hose) goes in?

Does it go in from the front (bolt head faces fan) or from the rear (bolt head faces firewall)?


Thanks

Larry

On my 5.0 (just ran out and checked) the bolt head is in on the firewall side and the bolt threads point toward the fan.

Thanks Mike, that is the way that I have it. It just looked funny with threads near the belt.
