Title: L67 Alternator Post by: dguy on March 19, 2004, 10:28:27 am Food for thought for those who don't like the idea of hacking up their RH decklid hinge.

Better clearance of exhaust and easier access from bottom. Have a home made idler set up I put on that side to aid belt routing due to lack of power steering pump.

Didn't read my follow-up, didja? ;) Title: Re:L67 Alternator Post by: GoFast85 on March 23, 2004, 01:53:28 pm No need for that part anymore!
