I have also been looking at those and was wondering the same thing. There is a person selling them on a large auction site that I visit and I have sent him an email to find out if he could send me some pics of them installed but I have gotten no response. I am very interested if you can find out anything please post your findings and I will do the same if I find something out.

Neal, i don't see why not, looks like lots of us have gone to that style of alt brkt, they look good and are a lot sturdier than the stock brkt. if u note my upper rad hose is higher than the alt. go for it, worst that could happen is to send it back
