power steering brackets. !!!

I am running a 327 with a short water pump and need some advise for power steering brackets, although i am using a later model (70-87 ish) pump. Are there brackets out there for this set up up? I hope so as I don't want to have to buy another pump. I already have extra pulleys for water pump and crank that I cant use.
Does anyone have a go to source for info on stuff like this?

If you do, lets meet up, would love to see your truck. I am probably only 2 weeks away from having my 58 fleetside on the road again.

Fab guy, After seeing your projects, I don't think you'd be much impressed with my pile. I love her cause I waited all my life to get her but really? She's an old rattle-canned, rattle trap. Lots of work to do on her, but that's ok I've got years til retirement when she'll get blown apart for a frame off.

true true, actually, she might prefer a pat on the tail gate

all that matters is that it's old and cool & yours is exactly that, VERY COOL. I like all trucks, cars regardless of looks, additions, or MAKE

on this site, some may think I am

Re: power steering brackets. !!!

You guys are suggesting a little fender fondling?!

She's a 63 year old lady, boys. ha ha.

Ok, but seriously she's still a little distance from showing off. Hell, the passenger door is held shut with a bungee cord and the window crank falls off at every other corner.

LMAO, your too funny.
My 55 suburban has ALOT of cancer, chopped up dash, cracked windows, actually one is even spidered, carpet is a blue seats are black & mexican blankets, big dents on the rear doors, painted chipped rear bumper, and I driver her like a 16yr old driving his first car. I am PROUD to drive her around town and show her off.... kinda like the country song from
Confedarate Railroad:

You should've seen the looks on the faces of my Dad and Mom,
When I showed up at the door with a date for the senior prom.
They said: "Well, pardon us, son, she ain't no kid.
That's a cocktail waitress in a Dolly Parton wig."
I said: "I know it, dad. Ain't she cool, That's the kind I dig."


My OLD burban is just that, and I love her to death. Even my wife calls the suburban my mistress, and my truck my girlfriend. Be proud of what ever YOU have, because no one else has it, YOU DO>>>

Ok, drive HER whenever I meet you Anything better and I'll be depressed

I'm sure we'll meet very soon as summer is upon us and I go over to old town Monrovia sometimes for their weekly farmer's market. I plan to drive my truck as soon as I get the seat belts and dual master cylinder into her.
