Does the Kenworth bracket for alt/A/C work?

I'd like to know if anyone has actually used the kenworth bracket successfully, and how much does it actually move everything up? Thanks

Kenworth bracket for alt/A/C work?

Im shure it works because it moves every thing aroundon the passenger side ,if it fits and practicle im not shure ,



but looking at your engine in mopar engine bay trim , it looks diffrent since

all the acessories are configured to work how they manted it



I think the best answer is to go to a KW dealer and see if they have one in the lot or service bay to open the hod to see how it fits /take photos

plus they haave the belt part number that will fit the application

I figure with this part # floating around for a couple of years on this and other conversion forums that someone had to have tried it by now. Looking at a Kenworth, if I can find a dealer that is willing to let me look at one, won't tell me if the Dodge accessories will bolt to it for sure either. I think I saw a picture and the person said that he had to space the a/c farther out because it hit the bracket, but now I can't find the picture anywhere. The belt is the least of my concerns, I can measure and get one at Carquest or whatever.

I went on cummins conversion.com and there is someone that posted all part #'s for the tensioner and alternator brackets to use a delco 22si alternator, it looks like a nice setup. The only real issue he had was notching the alternator bracket for the Dodge style thermostat housing water outlet and drilling out the 8 rib pulley from the Dodge style alt to fit the Delco alt.

I used that kenworth bracket and a 2001 compressor off of a dodge and it worked perfectly. I have a bracket where the upper radiator hose attaches that used a chevy alternator at production. I believe that motor and transmission are original from an RV but I reused that alternator bracket and incorporated a factory chevy small block alternator bracket and it's as solid as a rock, I'll post some pics if I can.
