Try searching e-bay maybe, a guy in another thread found one on there. I don't think you can keep your power steering tho no matter what.

I bought my car with a TH350 and no PS.

FLT Level 4 4L60E went in & the PS/ALT got addressed quickly :)

You can also do it this way with the stock bracket.

Crazycam, I would like some more info on that too. Do you have any more pics? Maybe of the motor put back together? I've been trying to figure out where to put the Alt and PS.

is there any reason the alternator cant be relocated to the driver side engine so that A/C can be retained?

you can do that. i'm moving my alt. to the driverside down low. my powerstearing is staying on the passenger side but moving down.

I did a setup similiar to this last weekend for mine. The right side alternator leg gets whacked off. I put a grooved pulley in the left alt bolt hole. The stock alt wouldn't fit in the A/C spot. I used an alt from a 92 TBI camaro. I've heard the S10 alt works also, (different mounting ears). I think that is the alt used in this pic. Pretty simple mod to do. Took about 5 hours. Motor is already out of the car though.

I used a alternator from an early 90's 4.3l S-10. Same plug and everything. Not sure on the mounting ear locations compared to what is used here. Mine used an aftermarket bracket that deleted power steering.
This alternator is rated at lower amps... but I haven't seen a problem with the couple weeks of running mine. Not really sure why a camaro would need the higher amperage alt (CS144) compared to any other vehicle that uses the smaller CS130.
BTW, it IS lighter ;)

The alt that I used is exactly like the one you did. I know there is a different front casing design for that style alt. The mounting ears are a little different. The only reason I used the camaro 1 is cause I have one parked in the backyard.

My buddy modified his accessory bracket a bit to relocate his alternator. Here's his write-up:
