Brackets are readily available from common vendors. Search or look on site for list of vendors.

Go on EBay and search. Looking at pics and measuring off your block and alternator would likely provide the info and style you want. Some are very simplistic.

Just use the original bracket with a long bolt, and a piece of pipe or thickwall tubing as a spacer. A bit of measuring and a hacksaw, and a few flat washers if necessary should get the job done. I have used "all-thread" rod and flat washers to mount an alternator, but a spacer to hide the threads looks a little more professional.
