You would also need to cut a similar amount from the spacer supplied with the bracket. This must be done to get the alternator pulley to line up with the drive belt.

You knew that! As you're now remembering, a good hot rodder has to be apt at carving pieces to fit where they once wouldn't fit. Get that hacksaw blade warmed-up. DD
