For those with GM serpentine systems - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I got a complete 90% system on ebay from a 90s camaro. Then bought the few missing pieces new from GM gmpartsdirect.com referencing part numbers from the GMPP catalog.

Can anyone tell me where the two braces attach? They are called "generator brace" and A/C compressor brace"
I've been staring at the system for a long time and tried everywhere, but I must be stupid because I can't find a place for them to go...
Sorry for the outdated pic, I have installed the A/C compressor, idler pulley, and belt.

Yeah, that's what I would think too... just can't find a way to make it fit or see any holes to mount it. Maybe I just need another set of eyes.

Here is a picture that might help. I had the same problem with my serpentine drive. The alternator bracket can be seen attached to the formost header bolt and connected to the alternator. The A/C compressor bracket mounts in a similar fashion with one end connecting to the front header bolt. I hope this helps. I do not have a picture of it or I would post it.

Here is another pic. The bracket can be seen attached to the header with a spacer.
