well royce, now i gotcha {G}... By hawkrod - 04/08/2002 12:14:27 PM; IP 198.81.17.51 62 and older blocks are missing a bolt hole to mount the alternator. i had to fabricate a bracket to to support the rear of an alternator on my 62 bird because it will rattle and vibrate until it breaks off (it sucks!). i originally tried a small bracket from the bolt hole on the side of the block but i still need to tie it to the water pump because it still vibrates under a good load! so any block 63 and newer will fit a 63 but unless you have to don't use an earlier block. and as an added bit o' fun i sold an engine out of my bird parts car to a guy with a 63 and i warned him about the alternator bolt hole and he said no problem, now he wants his money back because the alternator broke off and did a lot of damage! hawkrod
