I had purchased a jay racing alternator relocation kit and had the same issue as several others had with theirs. after emailing several people and addressing this in another thread i figured I would put it here as well.
follow the instructions for how to install it. ill show the extra steps i needed to take.
here is the bracket that needs to be ground down. i did mine with a die grinder inside the car. I held a vaccume right next to the bracket to minimize metal shavings.
now here is where i had to make the correction. they give you 1 or 2 spacers with the kit and neither of them would line up properly and I was out of the correct size pipe to make a new spacer so i used the poor mans method of adjusting the alignment
once i did the realignment of the alternator on the mounting bracket I had the belt aligned properly.
after that it is just a matter of extending the wires and reinstalling the plugs that connect to the alternator itself.
I dont know if the spacers were just cut improperly or are just not the correct size but a few people had the same issue so i figured I would post up an easy fix so your not stuck.
