alternator mounts for electric water pump?

just wondering what you guys are using when you switch to electric water pumps to run your alternators. need a new mount system because i am pulling my ac and powersteering, possibly the waterpump as well. let me know what you guys are doing to run either just your alternators or alternators and waterpumps. looking for the most cost effective way to do this but i dont want to pitch belts going down the track. pics would be great.

Re: alternator mounts for electric water pump?

My alternator is custom low mounted and uses a short belt directly off the crank pulley. You can buy low mounts to either mount a typical 10si alternator or a mini Denso style alternator. on either side of the block. I can't use a store purchased low mount because of how I have my front motor plate.
