ADVANTAGES

The Header Power Bracket offers other advantages to the enthusiast: 

> Close Mounts the Alternator

The Header Power Bracket "close-mounts" the alternator pulling
it in toward the centerline of the car providing additional outboard space when mounting the accessory.  This also reduces polar moment and in the more typical left-hand placement, moves the weight of the alternator closer to the right rear wheel.  

> Uses Shorter Belt

It also allows for the use of a shorter belt, reducing belt "whipping" and the chances of throwing the belt.

> Retains Existing Alternator Position

A matched billet aluminum spacer is also offered.  This will move the alternator out 1" from the centerline, to where most others put
it, allowing you to retain your existing belt while adding a level of style to your engine never seen in a header-mount system before.

> Retains Existing Hardware

Unlike some other designs that require a complete change out of bracketry, the Header Power Bracket allows the user to retain
much of the existing set-up including the factory (or aftermarket)
J-Bar and Lower Alternator Mount (F-Bracket).  This can result in a substantial savings to the user over other aftermarket assemblies.  If you don't already have these pieces, they may be obtained through Summit Racing Products at reasonable cost.

> Polishes to a High Luster

The aluminum spacers can be obtained in a satin finish or
polished to a high luster.  This is the first time that billet aluminum has been offered in a header-mount system.

DESIGNS
> Standard Bracket

The Header Power Bracket is available for both left (driver) and right (passenger) sides.  In traditional fashion, the standard Header Power Bracket mounts to the engine using the header bolts that surround the front-most cylinder.  All brackets come coated with a high-heat, ceramic-bearing header coating.

>  Extended Header Bracket

The Extended Header Bracket is also available for both the left and right sides.  These brackets use the #1 and #3 bolt holes and allow user to easily mount their alternator in the usual spot without down-pipe interference or the difficulty of getting that "tricky" second bolt in place.  Furthermore, based on the design, the Extended Header Bracket may just be the strongest alternator bracket ever offered!
