Drilled Ramp for Alternator Cooling Blast Tube Flange

I’m going to be installing a cooling blast tube for the alternator.  I drilled a 5/8″ hole in the right ramp just above the alternator.

I purchased a couple of these flanges for 3/4″ SCAT tubing from someone on Van’s Air Force.  I put a socket inside the flange to help center it in the hole.

Here’s where the flange will mount on the bottom of the ramp.

I wrapped a few layers of electrical tape around the socket to perfectly center it in the hole since the fit was a little loose.  This worked like crap, don’t even bother.  I ended up having to drill new holes in the flange because it was so far off center.  Instead, just eyeball it and clamp it in place.  That worked perfectly.
