Alright well I am working on installing the alternator drop down tension bracket......the one that sits behind the A/C compressor stock. Well Ron's is designed to fit over the compressor bracket. After having threaded the two bolts that hold the a/c compressor bracket to the block on the intake side, I cannot get the nut threaded on Ron's tension bracket as there is a space between the bracket and the block after removing the stock tension bracket. The stud on the block does not appear to long enough. Has anyone else ran into this problem or am I just doing something wrong? (I described it the best way I can....I will post a pic)

I think I know what you are referring to, I think I had to take that old stud out and put a longer threaded one on then place washers to fill the gap so it would mount flush then put the nut on. You will have to tinker a round a bit because it is still a tight fit and go with the shorter belts because you don't have as much adjustment room.
Hope that helps.
