alternator drop bracket
i dont want to sound like a right mongo
but i've got a alt drop bracket to fit to an escort after fitting a big turbo,
i've got the bracket but cant for the life of me figure out how to fit it, i cant get anything to line up, either on the alt bracket or the block,
is there differant brackets for differant types or am i missing something
any advice or pics please would be great as i'm stumped
sorry forgot to say its running the twin v belt set up from a saphy not usual escort ribbed belt

The drop braket only works on 2wd and early 4x4 cars where the PS pump is under the inlet manifold. The later 4x4's and Escorts have everything under the exhaust manifold and its all mounted on one big bracket. The drop bracket doesn't fit this big bracket as far as i'm aware? Unless you've changed that to a 2wd version too?

its early 4x4 saph set up,
pas pump is under inlet manifold,
its just that i cant even get the alt monting bracket to line uo with the holes on the drop bracket,
so i take it that i've got to cut off the lug thats in the way at the bottom of the block
