Alternator bracket pic request

All of your clearance issues may stem from whether you reused the 68 brackets and pulleys from the cast iron pump style, and are trying to use them on the aluminum water pump style.
I don't know man. The water pumps appear identical other than the new on having an extra port on top. The alt and water pump pulleys line up well. I tried a single crank pulley that won't work, so I have to snag the double crank pulley off the old engine.
