If not running A/C clearance is fine. It all depends on how your motor is positioned. There maybe interferance between the Alternator and the steering box. The truck accesories clear great, but again it comes down to how the engine is positioned because there maybe interferance with the P/S pump and the steering box.

If you are using traditional motor mounts a lower mounted alt.will clear the gearbox,however,if you are using a plate system like me,it will not,location is a little different

Ah! Good to know. I will try to make these truck accessories work then for sure! I ended up moving the motor mounts back about 1.25". This will definitely help. Probably will still need a smaller P.S. pulley.

Thanks.
