Has any one got any pics of there altenator positioning on a zetec (silver top 2.0l) in an indy with t/b's and which one they used ?. thanks .

I can send you pictures of a black top positioning of the alternator. I think they are very similar

Apologies - Can I hijack this thread coz I am scratching my head about how to fit an alternator to my zetec with tbs. So I would also appreciate any advice on how anyone else has attached them.

Sorry!

Cheers

Chris

Hmmm i'll see if i can get a few that aren.t too dark for you tomorrow. Mine is on some kind of home made bracket mounted to the block i think

Thanks Eddie. I cant work out how to get photos onto the thread but I have put them in my photo archive so if anyone wants them then they are there for all to see.

For that matter can anyone tell me how to get them on the thread?!??!?

Cheers

I had a similar problem with bike carbs. In the end I used a really small denso alternator on a home made bracket.

Lol hope it helps, its not the neatest of solutions but its not bad.... its a tight fit but it works and so does the throttle
Needs a bit of tidying up....

I have used original throttle body and intake by the way but its similar position to any other throttle bodies :p

Would be helpful if someone could post them from chris's photo archive :p

Thanks

Thanks, sorry they are bad photos, quite hard to get a good angle now the engine is in the car

Ive made a few zetec alt mounts. The denso is nice but would need droping a bit more or laying over to get mr r6 Tb's on stubby manifold to fit.






The holes are 50mm apart and the back hole is 5mm lower than the front.

Ive bassed mine on tim windmills as the tb's are well matched to the ports.

The manifold plate is one of shorttracks and the hole lot comes in at around £100
