Only thing questionable about the way this mounting system works is the pivot point for the alternator. It should be at 9 o'clock instead of 6 o'clock. Reason? Because swinging the alternator at 6 o'clock makes very little distance change from the A/C pulley to the alternator. May not be enough difference to get the belt tight and to get it off without removing the alternator. Or maybe there is and I just worry too much.
By the way, the similar setup on my 228 GMC swings from 9 o'clock. Works great.
