    Of course it couldn't fit right in like stingers and a few others. Instead of grinding the housing I decided to fabricate a bracket and adapted it to fit on the existing housing. Because I did this though the belt was rubbing up against the main housing bolt. I then took the bolt out and took out all the shims from the back and put a couple I had laying around onto the front of the bolt before the alternator. This moved the alternator back about 4 or 5 millimeters. I attached everything again and the belt was perfect. There is actually a litle more tension now because of the way that the alternator sits but I was still able to use the stock belt
