So what is it? Its a bracket for flipping the alternator on a Subaru engine. This allows you to rotate the intake manifold around. This is important because when using a Subaru engine in a 914, the intake points into the trunk. If you use the stock transmission mounts the intake will not clear the rear trunk.
Okay, so what you see is several pieces, some of which will be included in the kit, some of which are parts from the stock Subaru alternator mount. In the image, the alternator is shown, missing the actual alternator parts (just showing the front mounting plane and pulley). The gray colored vertical portion is a simplified drawing of the stock Subaru alternator mount, and the small brown part is the stock tensioner/adjuster block. so what you get are the purple screws, the green, and blue parts. So who is interested? Price will be $125. With shipping, taxes it comes out to $150.31. These will be CNC machined from aluminum. I am not producing these, so don't send me money. This needs to be a group buy to make it work out. So if you are serious about buying one of these, please PM me or say so here. -Tony |

There is another thread about this issue but I'm curious of this mount will work with an a/c setup? |

Normally the compressor sits where the alternator will sit with the instalolation of this kit. However, there is room on the other side of the intake, though whether its sufficient for fitting a compressor I don't know. There must be some way to use a compressor, maybe with some extension away from the engine.

If you're having all of these custom brackets and pieces made up, what's stopping you from going with a turbo-scoob application?
