alternator re-mount, for tall valve covers, 1973 BB w/ power steering

hi all,
hoping someone can help on here since ive been googling around for ages.

i'd like to re-mount my alternator further away from the valve covers for more clearance to get some tall valve covers in. chevy engine alternator low-mount kits seem to be readily available on ebay and stores but it doesnt look like it'd clear the power steering pump?

furthermore the PS pump bolts on to the same bracket that holds the alternator so that'd be another issue (but im sure i can sort that one out).

and also the stock bracket mounts the alternator away from the block (toward the front of the car), whereas the kits that ive seen seem to not allow for this (so it wouldnt line up)?

any help and advice much appreciated!
attached is a pic of the stock brackets with alternator removed.
car is 1973, 454 BB, w/ AC.

regards,
dan
