Hi folks,
I pulled the motor from the junker '68 today. I'm puzzled by the
alternator mount - it's on the same side as the manifolds - like the
later R16's (I think - most of my engine fun so far has been with the
G-series in the 1500). This motor is a 3-main bearing, block # R 27460,
which puts it at about 1967.
As you can see in the photos:

it has a different engine mount on this side which incorporates a mount
for the alternator. Is this from a later car? From the '68 1600 body
that the motor was in, or perhaps a Bluebird RL411?
I should be able to use the regular engine mount, correct? What do I
need to mount the alternator on the other side?
