71 style BB ac brackets? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I'm seeting up my big block now and want to pre-fit everything before I go buy all the hardened bolts, and paint the engine. Does this set up look correct as far as AC brackets? The compressor seems to line up with the middle groove on the crank pulley as well.

Thanks

Yes, it does look correct

Looks correct to me. Here some pics of mine 71 BB AC set up.

Thanks for the reply's, figured it was correct, just looks way less heavy duty than the small block in my truck now.

68 50th, where did you get those spark plug heat shields for the big block? I haven't been able to find them yet
