Alternator relocation on a 94/95 5.0 - What's the cleanest and simplest?

[shovel]

I have a project that involves deleting AC, PS and the smog pump, but I still need an alternator. I'd like to put it down where the smog pump was, or where the AC compressor was, but I know Fox Body stuff won't work for the spacing. I'm OK with a turnbuckle tensioner, not OK with switching to V belt or putting a different water pump on at this time.

Anyone have good suggestions for this? I'm not a good fabricator so welding something up myself is probably not going to be a satisfactory solution.

There was a place on facebook that was making/selling a kit to do this. I think these are the guys but I am not sure.

Looks like a winner, just have to check that I have the threaded boss they require https://speeddoctorracingcomponents...passenger-side-alternator-mount-sn95-explorer

I use a breeze automotive mount but its driverside. Foxbody mounts are just 1.5" longer than the sn mounts easy correction with the correct spacers.

I'll let y'all know how it goes. Won't be for a little while though.
