Correct Alternator Mounting Barkers?

Correct Alternator Mounting Barkers?
Am I missing something (see pics)? The bottom part of the alternator is supported my an obvious non-stock turnbuckle. It works, but what is the correct way? I have another bracket (see last pic) that I'm planning on using, but I've seen it with or without a back supporting bracket. Do I need the back bracket? By the way, I'm going to be using these brackets on my new 455.
Thanks,
Dave

The first one needs a piece that's kinda triangle shaped. The second one is missing the H shaped piece. I know there's some old posts with pictures, if you have time try the search option with my name to see what comes up. The factory thought they were needed, I've never run an engine without them. But think it may vibrate too much and eventually break something without the support.
Both of these are common brackets. I've got extras of them both and know several other members here do too. I'd encourage you to decide which one to run with and create a parts wanted thread with your location and see what gets offered.

Thanks John. I'll probably go with the second one. I'll have to search out a "H" bracket then.
