Alternator Relocation to avoid frame rail

Looks like the trucks might have had a non-VVT and VVT spacing. I wasn’t thinking of or looking at the truck, was focused on the cars. That might be partly why some have never seen a VVT belt spacing “outlier”.

ATI sells one dampener for a non-VVT truck and one for a VVT truck, supporting the idea that the spacing is one or the other. At the same time, they sell a car dampener for the 05-08 5.7, 09-10 5.7 and the 11+ 5.7. Not definitive proof, but fits my theory and doesn’t disprove it.

ATI Super Dampers for Chrysler, Dodge and Mopar Engines - including the new HEMI!
Different OD. Underdriver/overdrive ratios. We use a 5.7 vvt damper on a 6.4 daily. Bolts right on. Different size OD
And RockAuto shows a power steering pump that fits the 5.7 Charger from 06-10 and the 300 from 2005-2010, crossing the VVT introduction line.
Those bolt to the head. Maybe non vvt heads stick out more than vvt heads, or vice versa.
Weird. Prochanger lists their kit for 2006-2010 Charger 5.7’s.

2010-2006 CHARGER R/T (5.7)
Probably just needs a few spacers to eat the belt spacing up. One of Our front pulley suppliers offer a single kit for both, with spacers for vvt.

Like you said, not arguing, or anything at all. All friendly here. Just trying to help you. Chrysler never made anything easy. That's for sure. ! Good luck
