Alternator bracket

I have had two alternator brackets fail on the welds. This is the bracket that attaches the alternator to a Zetec under the carbs, can anyone suggest a "quality" item.
Done some phoning around and not come up with anything yet.

Very common failure on zetec's.

Its normally the bolts that shear tho and are a bugger to get out of the block

And very common Tigers! Tiger do a stronger item if you want to go down that road.

One question - how can you tell which is the "Stronger" Tiger mount ?
Both of mine have broken off at the welds, back weld last time and yesterday;front weld.
