2fast4u831, how do you have your alternator setup and have you had any problems with it? also, what did you do about your crank and balance shaft pulley clearance? I will be daily driving my h2b swap too, and these two areas concern me the most.

The bracket broke when I took the engine out so I will be making my own alternator bracket. I removed the balance shaft gears(balance shafts are still in place) and moved my crank pulley 1/2" to the passenger side. I did a small write-up on the H2B FAQ thread I also drove my car without timing covers. no banging on the frame either

Back from the dead I see!

Anyways, a guy local to myself had trouble with the threads in the alum. plate because he had his engine/trans apart several times, and eventually stripped a couple threads.

He just made himself a new plate out of steel using the old alum. one as a template. Just be careful with the threads and you'll be fine.
