Power Steering

I began a project 3 years ago where I removed an engine from an '78 GMC and I intended to install a high performance 350 in it. The man (who shall go unnamed) that supposedly was building the motor. Took the parts from the original motor (brackets, distributor ect.) Lost some of the parts due to the length of time and a household move he experienced during this time frame. To make a long story short. Other plans had to be made to avoid complete degradation of the body waiting for this fella's integrity to suddenly appear. The power steering bracket is among the missing. I purchased one from a salvage yard and I can't remember how it attaches to the motor. If anyone would be so kind as to post a pic of the bracket configuration. I would be grateful for the help.

Re: Power Steering

The salvage yard is the way to go for that part.
