what have you done with your alternator to get it out the way oli ?? i was thinking about running a small jap one off the front of the block ??
I made a bracket out of thick steel (heavy :( ) to lower the bottom mounting point by about 1"-1.5" then made an extended top arm to go between the 13mm headed bolt on the cylinder-head to the 13mm headed bolt on the top of the alernator, just a bent bit of steel with a hole at one end and a slot at the other, to allow adjustment. Then get a belt to fit from Halfrauds.Quote:

It is road legal, but it's absolutely sheeeite on the road cos its so stiff and light.
I've only got a tiny race battery so it needs all the help it can get, I would like a smaller alternator tho, cos the standard Corsa GSI one is definately overkill for the amount of electrics my car has lol
