Default Alternator relocation?

Has anyone attempted to relocate the alt to the lower driver's side? Is there enough clearance with the steering rack/steering shaft for it to even fit? Seems like if it could have been done someone would have done it already by now.

The second option i'm looking at would be to slide it closer to the throttle body, which I've seen a couple of pics of people going that route, but there isn't much info around.

Typical relocation is lower passenger side where the AC would have been. I know ECS had a kit at one time.
