    If Mollins doesn't want yours, let me know and i'll buy it for the right price.
    They're still available at the dealers down here (but for ridiculous money!!). I just had someone buy one in Europe for me and send it down most recently. Someone imports them in Yankland, too (where I got my first one) but his are rebadged OEX alternators as I later learned

    Its not a 8v or 16v Bracket, its an AC bracket or not with the ribbed belt setup.

    The most common application for that setup down under is a 2L Transporter sold without AC, but with the ribbed alternator pulley. 1996/7 Onwards. Early vans have a v belt and metal brackets.

    The alloy bracket part number is 028 903 143 AD.

    There is a spring that goes with it to make the alternator tension, but you could use a bar setup for adjustment instead. I just used this same setup for a 20VT into a Mk1.

    The waterpump pulley to suit this ribbed belt is 028 121 013 K.

    Could you use the AC bracket and move the alternator, pivoting it forward from one of the boltholes and fixing it there to get around this problem?
    That sounds like an idea. I'll get those parts possibly S/H and clean them up myself (New pulley though..).

    And i'll get a S/H alternator and get my auto elec mate in town to reco it for me. He does a top job.

    I'll get the old man on the job tomorrow to track some parts down for me.
