will an older HQ style bracket fit on? might pay to look around some of the old car mags for pic than go searching wrecking yards for a bolt on bracket

This is on my 308, made the bracket out 8mm plate and just found myself a longer belt.

I made my own brackets to mount it as high as I could.

The swing arms are bolted to the head and the top bracket is a fixed arm that bolts to the water pump .
