Dudes:

Now that I finally got my air injection pump assembly off (what a bitch!), I am trying to loosen the alternator in order to get the new belt on. I thought I was home free!

In a previous post (thanks guys!), I was told there was one bolt to loosen (Allen) and also that there were 2 bolts to loosen (a 13mm and the 6mm Allen), with the 13mm bolt accessible from below.
Which is correct for my '76?

I've loosened the 6mm Allen, but I can't slide the alternator at all. I've sprayed it (the bolt and bracket) with Liquid Wrench to break it loose, but it won't budge.
I also jacked the car up and crawled underneath and cannot find any 13mm bolt to loosen.
Can someone tell me what's going on? If I DO have the 13mm bolt below, were exactly is it? I hope I don't have to remove anything from below to get at it.

Your help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Andy...
