I don't remember modifying much on that side, maybe some spacers on the bracket and a longer bolt/stud but on the DS I had to make a new alternator support bracket. None of it was a big deal.

I couldn't get the PS header in without pulling the coolant switch out of the head(cause I didn't take any A/C stuff off), but i swapped a pipe plug in it with a quick hand and undid it after the header was in, and it didn't spill enough coolant to need repacked (lucky).

You can kinda see in this pic the spacers pushed the bracket out:


In this you can see the short ALT bracket, it was easier to make than mod the old one.
