   I got an unwrapped aftermarket manifold and the alternator sits pretty close to it,I heard you can use the VTR alternator bracket that sits a little lower but I'm unsure of the exact pieces I need,can someone point me in the right direction?
   Many thanks.

   Why not make a heat shield for the standard alternator?

   That's a good idea,I have no idea where to start though,I need to look up someone who have done it so I can have a look at what I need.

   Thanks,this one should fit so I'm currently looking for one,even though it doesn't seem to be the same from the one you posted.

   I had a look to see if there was enough clearance for a plate but there isn't any really,I don't see it fitting it that little space so I believe the VTR setup is the only way.

   So,after some research I found out these are the 2 brackets I need,they're off a VTR 8v:
   
   
   
   Next up is a VTR 8v belt and crank pulley.
   
   Once I fit everything I'll try to make a complete guide so that anybody who want to run this setup can do so easily.
