LWP alternator bracket for a custom app

Any of you guys, can you think of what I can use for a top bracket/adjuster? I'm running a long vette water pump which does not have top bolt holes for a traditional top bracket, nor does my miniram intake have the top hold that most carb intakes would have. But I need an old style bracket that I can adjust and lock down.

Here is what my water pump looks like:

Right now the alt is sitting in the AC bracket and is locked stationary. I want to replace the bracket with a normal lower bracket, but I have no way to make the top adjustable. The only threaded hole on my water pump is vertical not horizontal like all the brackets I've seen.

Anyone ever seen anything?

Hi Jimmy,

Thanks! And I was looking at that hit, but I don't know where I'd mount the adjuster as I don't have that style water pump...?
