autotensioner delete????

[taka21]

hey everyone im looking into making a bracket that will allow us to run just an alt belt (for those that have deleted ps and ac and want a decent amount of belt wrap on the pullys.
i saw the one thor racing put out but its crazy expensive 190 euros or something like that.
i have seen some of the guys over on toymods come up with different solutions to this issue and all of them make it possible to swing the alternator to tension the belt
so im posing the question to everyon of How would you do it?

ok take a datsun 510 alternator bracket and flip it over and upside down. It works killer. I'll try to post pics up later, but I have this setup working fine on 3 different 1uz swaps.

I am only using the alternator on my 1UZ install, so here's a link to what I did:
