Your meaning the slider that the bolt goes throught to adjust tension on the belt?? if so you need to get another. Then cut all of the straight part off it and weld it to your original one.

As for the belt hiting the lower bracket, mine was close on mah old engine but it never hit!!

as stated 1st of all, i think the sports have a slide adjustment bracket for tensioning alternator - obviously to suit a T40s inlet
