That's just our Craigslist's most recent engine numbskull. Get a load of this:

I did a compression test on it in the yard; all cylinders at 145psi on cranking. Looks super clean at the rockers too, so I probably did good. I'm planning a tear down for inspection and new seals; no bearings if it doesn't need them.
The Sanden is chipped on the mounting tab, and the plastic back of the alternator is cracked. While I can use both, am NOT using the factory brackets. The compressor mounting is the biggest pain in the arse you could imagine, and removal of the intake requires pulling the compressor AND everything in front short of the PS bracket and water pump (though multiple bolts must be removed from the latter). I plan on using Bouchillon's Sanden bracket instead, and worry about the alternator second.
