Sorry about the lack of detail. These were shot to show the a/c brackets, but you might be able to see what you need....

ok looks like my prob is the pump then as i got the brackets but tried to use my 70 power steering pump with newer lwp brackets. the brackets wont bolt to the pump.

*update* i was wrong it does bolt up that way lol, my prob originally why i couldnt figure out was i was trying to bolt bracket to back of the pump like it was before. bolts right on now cept bracket that goes to exhaust manifold stud.i dont have manifolds but have headers now. does anyone make a bracket for this problem when you put headers on? thanks for the pics.

I used the original stud from the manifold setup. Cut down an extra alternator spacer, the same thickness of the manifold. Washers and or larger nuts work too, but not too appealing. Below is a pic of mine in an 84 crewcab dually, with a 355 small block.

yeah i think im just gonna buy a piece of pipe and cut me a spacer and put a long bolt in it, thanks for the pic really helps.

well i thought it fit but looks like it dont, i guess its the pump as it hits on the engine on tube for low pressure hose. whats the back of your guys pump resevoir look like. pics show where it hits.

Here is another clean option.


you can order it here

bracket

Also noticed you are from lake ozark I am from St robert by fort wood.

yeah thats kinda nifty bracket wish i had seen this before, either way id still need new power steering pump as mine off swp and apparently they are different as pulleys dont line up and would still rub on block with that bracket looks like. yeah im not far from you then. i go down 54 all the time on way to st louis. how far are you from 54?

[76bonanza]

I live just off I-44 about 2 minutes from interstate, Exit 164 I think. Not sure how you go to st louis.

[Budweis]

yeah i usually go down 54 to 70 as where im located its lot quicker that way

[badone07]

Looks like you have a straight 6 pump there. Any sbc ps pump should work for you. My return isn't close to the block or head.

i got one on the way, i think its the original style 350 pump but its a 1970 with short water pump and i think they are just different as pump brackets on 70 bolt to motor mount normally
