    Check eBay, they are for sale on there often.

    I just sold one on eBay for about $30 a month ago. Keep in mind that the one Vortech or Paxton sells is intended for a stock alternator, not the 3G commonly upgraded to on the '86-'93 cars. The 3G is larger in diameter. If you have the 3G, I think you can use a longer bolt at the smog pump and shim it up with washers to get it to work. At least this is from my experience.

    Your better off going to a hardware store and getting some flat stock and making one.

    Much better idea. Easy to do too. Look at pictures of the Vortech one, bolt the assembly together to figure out the dimensions. Then bend, cut and drill as needed. Use 1/4 inch steel stock.

    Yeah, I had a Vortech on the car prior to the Novi. No biggie there. Wish I would have seen yours, woulda bought it!

    I may very well end up doing that, I'm tight on time and it's easier to spend the $ than find another hour to make one up. Just need it to complete the kit to sell it, going TT.

    Thanks for the input guys, if I don't find one w/in the next week or so I'll just make one up but thought I'd at least ask.
