Please help! VTR alternator setup on a VTS? How?
Does anyone have any photos of a VTR alternator setup on a VTS?
Or/ and a description of the parts involved.
I really want to use the VTR setup to sit my alternator away from my manifold.
It is the lower bracket I seem to be struggling with most, thanks.

I have, what I'm led to believe, is a mk2 VTR setup but it doesn't fit. The top bracket lines up perfect.

As said you'll need to tap the thread, but make sure its the VTR bracket and not any other 8v i was told any 8v set up would fit and it didnt. Must be the VTR set up.
Not my car but

Like I say, top (tensioner) bracket seems ok, this is the bottom one that is being troublesome..

Look like alloy block mount
Prett sure that's not a cast block mount, on phone ATM so could be wrong, but I'm fair sure that's not the right mount

This is the top bracket that's ok, both brackets are (meant to be) off the same car, a 2002 mk2 VTR.

Have you tried running a tap down the holes as posted?
Top one looks right, bottom looks diff but can really tell as on phone, as posted though, the block won't be tapped for the vtr bracket in most cases

That would explain why it's a swine to fit. You haven't got the one I need do you?

I don't mate, my last one went to a forum member, but I've had lots of R engines, even from the very late 03/53plates
And never seen a lower that looked like that

It looks like it could fit though, trying to map it out in my head
Do th holes line up to any of the bosses on the Block?
