alternator relocation

So Im doing a lot of stuff to my gtp. Im doing a fuse box, battery, and pcm relocation. Also replacing the trans and steering rack... I might install a hand brake from a grand am. Does anybody know how to move the alternator to where the ac compressor is? Do I need a different alternator? Also is there anything else I can move. Like the coil packs? How would I put them under the front header? Maybe the map sensor? I'd really appreciate any input or ideas that would help clean up and organize the engine bay
 


I don't see moving the alternator being a easy step I would a imagine a bit of machining is require to at least make a bracket. I would leave it in the stock location.. Coil packs guys usually move those to the firewall. Map/Baro you can move you'll just have to extend a few wires.
 
Move the coil packs under the exhaust manifold is a terrible idea too.

This.. Especially when you have to remember about the spark plug wires.. Back of firewall near the top would be a better option. Check out either Anthony Smith or Machinegunsquids build thread
 


On all the fiero builds he told me to look at. I found that picture myself. I forgot to ask if anyone knew who built that bad boy. Sorry for the confusion.
