I have a 351w swap into a fox and have ordered 2 altenator bracket setups and both have been short. The ones thay replace the huge tensioner and bracket. Where can I find the one that works correctly. Sooooo annoying. The new brackets that go from the alternator to the water pump are about 1.6 jnches short and the adjustable component is to short from the top of the alternator to the bracket bolt.

Without knowing what you're dealing with it's hard to answer.
do you have a thread that shows what you're working with?

These things. I have ordered the 351w one and a 5.0 one. Both are too short in both the bracket to the water pump and the adjustment bolt.
