Anybody know where I can find a 460 alternator bracket like this? My engine's down in a box and it would be nice to have the top adjust. Thanks in advance. :)

No idea, it could be a homemade deal with some powdercoating.
Looks simple as can be just make one!..
Althought that set up is prettier than mine it puts the alternator in the same location as the one I have that came off of a late 60's early 70's 460 car or truck motor. Mine is a pre- electronic ignition motor with non smog small chamber heads. I think they put the alt down low to clear the air conditioning or something. Anyhow, you should be able to cruise some wrecking yards and find that set up. Sorry I can't be more specific, but my engine was already out of the car when I got it.
Thanks for the replys guys. I found one looking around on vintage Lincoln sites but they wanted $75.00 for it and didn't (wouldn't) tell me what it was off of. Seemed like a little much for a stock unit. I'll poke around the wrecking yards here and find one.
Thanks again

You might try a company called L & L. I utilized one of their kits on a truck I built. I used the alternator bracket they supply (off my truck) and made a copy of it for my boat. Works perfectly. You may be able to purchase a bracket from them.... Here's the link....L & L Products (http://www.landlproducts.com/)
It is a bottom adjust though. My engine bay hasn't got much room either, but it works ok.....
I really like the March kit.
