Alternator swap 56 olds 88

My car did not come with a generator, can i just swap an alternator on there? Do they make brackets or will the stock parts work? I have seen some cars with alternators swapped on them and it looks like they used factory brackets. Any help is appreciated.

Mine has a generator but just looking at it it sure looks like you could swap it out easily.. Your best bet would ask Ozzy he has converted his and would know what issues came up. The voltage regulator comes to mind external or internal, Original old voltage regulator or new style?....Tedd
