Mr Gasket sells the brackets for mounting the alternator in the factory location. It is two piece assembly, sold seperately. Most auto parts stores carry them on the floor.

I had just put headers on my 64 with a 283 before I pulled it to start converting the truck to a mid ninities LT1. If you buy a good set of headers (i.e. Hooker or hedmen) they come with the brackets needed. One bracket is bolted in place by the first two header bolts and the alt and 2nd bracket bolt to that bracket. Its rather simple and holding the brackets in your hand the use and alignment are self evident.
