Things are moving slowly. Doing bits and pieces.
Serpentine setup is basically finished. Just need to get a slightly smaller belt, and waiting on my new spacers before I fully bolt down the S/C bracket. I had to slightly modify my tensioner bracket because it was hitting the P/S pump pulley. Not a big deal; just had to cut it down from a 3-hole mount to 2

Here's a pic of the finished coil relocation setup and alternator bracket. .....well it may not actually be completely finished. I was looking online for a starter and realized the coil bracket is going to hit the starter solenoid. I'm hoping I'll only have to space it out a bit to clear.

When you have to custom make everything, there seems to be an endless cycle of pieces not fitting; even when you're positive you have everything worked out.
Even the bolts gave me a problem. I countersunk the bolt holes in the alternator bracket, so I could "sink" the heads of the allen bolts. Then when I buy new bolts, the heads are larger than the bolts I've purchased in the past. Had to grind down the heads of 7 S/S bolts. Took a lot longer than expected and did a pretty good job of wearing down my grinding wheel.
