As above the standard ford Lucas alternator is smaller and an easy fit.

I think you still have to fabricate brackets I have had to on my silvertop zetec with 40's fitted, we hhave also fitted a dhaihatsu alternator
to another zetec engine on the opposirte side at the bottom of the engine. Still had to fabricate mounts

You're gonna have to fabricate some brackets :/
Here's a couple of pics to show how we've done ours.
 
ready to fit
Later we I modified the bracket to allow for more that 10mm of adjustment.
I haven't got a photo of that yet though.
