Alt mount with motor plate 86 fox body

The plate is behind the FEAD (Front End Accessories Drive) correct?
Wouldn't you mount the ALT to the rear of the plate with the drive pulley protruding through the plate?

If it went through the motor plate the belt would never align to the crank pulley.
I just set up a motor plate in a fox with a Cleveland last year. The alt sat just below and back an inch or two and mounted the alt with some alum tubing stock on one end and a heim joint on the other for belt tension. Hope this helps.
