Hi guys im having a ton of trouble trying to figure out my ac brackets i just bought. My brackets are for the driver side of the engine and for a big block. I feel like im close with the 3 brackets i have but would love a couple pics. I have a big bracket that goes on the front of the head. A small one that may be one of my issues as i have headers and it is mounted just above my headers. It didnt line up with the header bolts anyway. I also have a longer 3 mounting hole piece. My adjustment slots on the compressor just wont seem to line up. The belt grooves seem to be in line so i have to be close. Any tips tricks or pics would be extremely helpful right now. I will try to get a pic of what i have going on right now as well. Thanks

These are how brackets sort of line up to not sure if they are right or not.

I believe those are for a long water pump setup. Is that what you are after?

Yes, I am running a long water pump. Its very tight but all of the brackets were cheaper. Are my brackets looking like i have them in the right spots?
