Power steering with long water pump?

[ratrod67]

Does anyone have any pics of how the power steering brackets are mounted when using a long water pump? I have the brackets but can't figure out how they mount.

What engine set-up are you running?

Assuming a 350, check out this url. It has a lot of pictures that may help you get started. Good luck.

The majority of the long water pump, ps pumps, hung from the water pump itself

If I remember correctly, one bolt threads into the front of the driver side head, with a spacer between the pump bracket and the head that is about 3/8 thick. Another bolt threads into the water pump. The other side of the pump attaches to the front of the exhaust manifold. Here's a lame picture I found on my computer.

Sorry, forgot to mention I'm running a BBC.

Ratrod,
Here are a series of pictures with the brackets. Hope they help.

Ratrod,
I just assumed you are using a one piece pump. If you are going with the pump with fender mounted reservoir, these may not be of any help. Mine is the same set-up as you would find on the BB Chevelle for these years.

Thank you!! The pics are EXACTLY what I was looking for. I knew how the "cradle" bracket and spacer went but couldn't figure out the other bracket with the square hole. Thanks again!!

Ratrod,
You are welcome. Glad to help. Good luck.
