Is this a test? God, I hope not.

Hey. The three brackets that are alike and the bottom left bracket are short water pump A/C brackets. The 6 and 11 o'clock brackets are newer long water pump A/C brackets. I'm not sure about the 1 o'clock bracket. Its hard for me to tell at this angle. A BB long water pump top A/C bracket looks about like that, but i'm not sure if thats what it is. Did i get a passing grade?

The 6 o'clock little bracket is the rear AC bracket for a rams horns short pump vehicle. The longer part with the hole on it goes to the rear bolt of the front cylinder on the pass side and the shorter one goes to the front bolt of the middle. The top two are later model stuff, but the others all look like 69-72. Not sure on the one at 5 o'clock, but it looks just like the ones at 3 and 9.

that little iron 6 o clock position bracket loks totally identical to the 70's SBCC a/c compressor rear support bracket that ive pulled off several 77-79 350 engines. i just aquired a decent for IL 81 C-10 tonight but has the ESC control system in it with those ESC 7 bolt exh maniffolds like seen on 82-92 firebirds camaros, etc,
, i wonder if it has this same rear small lower bracket on the a/c hmmm, ill see tommorrrow.

interesting, am trying to learn more brackets, is all,

thanks!

Most of the lower ones look to be A/C brackets, the 1 o'clock one looks to be a intake braket, maybe sparkplug wires or a TV cable?
