Look up 16 valve conversion goodies in the archives and you'll find all kinds of stuff. There are ways to gain a bit more room missing with the front mount but in the end you will have to push the firewall back and manipulate the booster. I've always just peen hammered the portion that is in the way but do not know how other's deal with the alternator clearance. The waterpump clearance can be made by bashing the section of the firewall back or by cutting out a section and putting in a "dimple" that accommodates the pully. Same can be said for the crank pulley. Do a search and see what you can find. Good luck.
