Serpentine braces
After finding the following post in a search, it seems I am still missing a few of the braces that came on various serpentine setups over the years.
I am looking for the following braces:
-Passenger side of alternator to intake brace
-PS pump to drivers exhaust manifold
-lower passenger side bracket (near smog pump) to passenger side exhaust manifold
I would like to see pictures first, and would require shipping through United States Postal Service to Ontario, Canada (L0S 1N0).
I also installed (5) of the (6) braces available for this setup. The brace that goes from the intake to the ALT, the brace on the back of the ALT, to the #1 CYL front exhaust manifold bolt, the brace that goes from the back of the PWR STEERING PUMP to that same exhaust manifold bolt. On the passenger's side, I installed the one that goes from the A/C compressor to the #4 CYL front exhaust bolt, and finally the brace that goes from the AIR PUMP to the #2 CYL front exhaust manifold bolt. The only bcare I didn't install, was the one that goes from the INNER A/C compressor rear bolt to the front of the intake. If you want a good picture of where all these braces are located, you can go to your local GM parts counter and ask for a print out an 88 IROC-Z, which seems to be the only model year car that got ALL (((6))) braces. Most GTA's 88-92 got the intake to ALT. brace, but the Z-28's didn't, and all those years vary with what they were supplied with. Camaro Heaven at 1-800-CAMARO-1 sold me all of the braces for less than $30. HTHs

Re: Serpentine braces
I've already located the alternator to exhaust manifold brace and am only missing the following:
-Passenger side of alternator to intake brace
-Power steering pump to drivers exhaust manifold
-lower passenger side bracket (near smog pump) to passenger side exhaust manifold
Thanks
