Hydroboost pump bracket. Wanted! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Converting my truck to hydroboost. I bought the replacement pump and now it won't fit my standard pump mounting bracket.

I'm looking for a mounting bracket to mount the hydroboost pump up high on the drivers side of my sbc 350.

Any pics would help.

thanks in advance.

Does your new pump use a remote reservior or is it on the pump?

Long water pump or short?

Res is on the pump. The hydroboost res has a second return line on it, and thats what is in the way of my old mount. Also the res is slightly differently shaped. My Gen 1 350 has a long water pump

You can 'T' your return lines into one and use a single return port on your reservoir. I did so and have not had any trouble.
