Hello all,

To make a long story short, my '66 122 2-door currently has a b-20 in it.

I have an alternator designed for a 140 on the car. In order to make it fit I had used a couple of spacers on the bolts that hold the alt in place.

On my way into work tonight the bottom blot came loose, and the spacer fell out. I was able to save the bolt but the spacer is now gone.

Does anyone know off hand what the off-set between the 140 and 122 is for the alternator? The last time I made the spacers I used trial and error to get everything lined up (not having anything to compare with). It was a time consuming process that I'd like to avoid if at all possible. If someone knows the measurement it would save me a lot of time.

Any tips for keeping those alternator bolts in place? I tried lock-tite on the bolt, and it didn't work.

Thanks as always!
