hi Guys. so i bulit my 1984 vk 308.
but swapped the heads to efi vn type.
im still using aircon bracket.
passanger side.
Aanyway, my alternator **** its self so i ordered an new one to suit a vk.
Problem is, the new one is different. it doesn't fit.
The new alternators pivot lug is only 51 mm. long.
my original is 55mm.
So now i have a 4 mm gap, and then tried using a spacer and now the alternator hits the extractors.
i'm at a lose.
are vn heads longer then vk heads.
do i need a special alternator?
do i need special brackets.
why cant i find an alternator with a 55mm pivoting lug like my original.
please help.
what do i do??
