I don't  know if they make a Poly kit.  But the alternator, from a 
1985-1991  Toyota pickup, is smaller and lighter than Chrysler's 
Nippondenso units,  and it has a built-in voltage regulator.  On my 440, 
I needed the  pulley set-up with the deep, single-groove water pump  
pulley.



Sean,
  I was actually going to try that alternator at first, mostly because  of 
the built-in regulator and the single pulley setup.  But it has a single  
mounting leg, instead of two side-by-side legs like the Chrysler version.   I can't 
use the bolt holes on the front of the head as part of the mount, or  mount 
the alternator in front of the head, like the modern SB and  BB's.  It would end 
up pushing the alternator too far forward.  So I  have to use the stock 
mounting bracket (requires two legs on the alt) and  adapt to that.  And because of 
that, it hangs the alternator out to the  side a little bit.  But I guess 
that's a small price to pay.    
 
Thanks for the suggestions though.  I appreciate the help.
Houston
