Not knowing your budget there are a couple of options, March systems has what you need, Dennis at DSC motorsports probably carries your desired parts as well.
Ebay can be an interesting source as well. |
2 piece alternator bracket set for 390-427-428PI engines. Price per set $69.95 http://store.cobranda.com/bigblalbrset.html
Here's a pulley, it might not be want you want though. http://store.cobranda.com/cojetdugralp.html |
Ford pickup, if you are on my budget. I think they look better as well.

March pulleys are fine but watch the underdrive version , they may or may not be what you need, I didn,t notice that they where the underdrive set and I had a heating problem at idle. That took me awhile to figure #***** thing out.

underdrive
I had to get March to send me a standard alternator pulley (at not cost to me) because the underdrive pulley would not charge the system.
Dwight Edit: Summit changed the pulley out for me because March would not do anything about the problem. They did admit that is was a common problem with their pulley set. Summit told me that I was their customer and they would make it right. And they did at no cost to me. Dwight |
I had the March std set and the water pump pulley was 6.5" and the crank was something like 5.25". The car overheated because of the underdriven pulley set. I bought a billet 5.25" waterpump pulley from Kirkham, it is really nice looking and no more overheating. Good to know that March made it right for someone but you won't find that combination on their website. Kirkham has some really nice billet aluminum bits for reasonable money.
The alternator can be positioned high with the standard brackets from a Ford Pickup or can be positioned low with the set that accomodated the air pump from a later Ford. They aren't very nice looking, just utilitarian Ford parts. I found many billet bracket sets when I was looking. Do a google search and see what you find. Most of the billet sets were very expensive but looked pretty good. I settled for ceramic coating the stock Ford bracket parts and it looks fine to me. Good luck. Paul |
If you can find them, and you want to really clean up the engine bay. Pick up the 428 smog brackets. Cut the smog portion off, clean it up and it locates the alt. down low.

If you want serpentine try Concept One. Ford FE Kits
I switched out the March setup in lieu of the serpentine since the Wp is not underdriven on the Concept one system. I see that their website says it includes an alternator now, but mine did not have oneat the time I purchased mine. May be an option. Very nice and clean setup. Fit perfectly. Brad W. |
