Holden 304–308 Low-Mount Serpentine Kit

Developed by Unrivaled Engineering, this low-mount billet serpentine kit provides a compact and reliable alternator mounting solution for Holden 304 and 308 engines. Positioning the alternator low on the driver's side of the engine, this system is particularly popular in Holden Torana applications and other vehicles where engine bay space is limited or a low mount accessory drive arrangement is preferred.

 

CNC machined from high-grade 6061 billet aluminium and supplied with stainless steel hardware, the alternator bracket has been engineered to position the alternator as close to the engine as possible. By minimising bracket offset and overall package size, potential interference with chassis rails, suspension components, and surrounding engine bay structures can be significantly reduced.

 

This system can be configured for use with either a mechanical or electric water pump, making it suitable for a wide range of street, performance, and engine swap applications.

 

The kit is designed to suit Chevrolet-style alternators with 168mm mounting centres, providing access to a wide range of readily available charging options, including high-output units for EFI systems, electric fans, fuel pumps, and other modern electrical demands.

 

Features

  • CNC machined from high-grade 6061 billet aluminium
  • Compact low mount driver's side configuration
  • Designed to position the alternator extremely close to the engine
  • Supplied with stainless steel mounting hardware
  • Compatible with Chevrolet-style alternators (168mm mounting centres)
  • Suitable for standard and high-output alternator applications

 

Why We Use an Eccentric Idler Pulley

Engineered to work with our Unrivaled Engineering Eccentric Idler Pulley system, this design delivers more than just belt adjustment. The eccentric idler introduces a controlled interruption point in the belt path, helping to dampen belt harmonics and reduce belt slap during engine operation. These belt oscillations occur in all belt-driven systems and are commonly encountered at specific RPM ranges, often contributing to premature belt wear, belt loss, and accessory drive instability. By

controlling belt movement and maintaining consistent tension, the eccentric idler improves belt life, reliability, and overall accessory drive performance.

Important Notes

  • This bracket is designed as a low mount alternator system and positions the alternator extremely close to the engine for maximum clearance.
  • Due to variations between vehicle makes, models, chassis modifications, engine mounts, headers, steering components, and suspension configurations, the end user must confirm suitability for their application prior to purchase.
  • Compatible with both mechanical and electric water pump combinations.
  • This bracket does not allow the use of a mechanical fuel pump.
  • Electric fuel pump conversion is required when using this bracket.
