i'm having trouble figuring out how my alternator and p/s pump mount to my motor. i have all the brackets i just can't figure out how they mount. if somebody could tell me how to or better yet show me some pictures on how they mount that would be awesome!

generally most people put a long bolt through the altenator with a spacer made from a peice of pipe behind it. Then they use a strap (like the one coming off your water pump to adjust the tension on the altenator, as for the power steering pump im not really sure, just a look and figure it out thing.

1. You're missing some brackets.... not going to be good for the PS pump. But maybe it will work. You have enough stuff to mostly put it together anyway. I won't guarantee that it won't sling belts.

2. You need to make a spacer to go on the front bolt on the driver's side header, such that the sum of the header flange plus the spacer, equals the thickness of the exhaust manifold.

3. You need to use the stock exh man stud at that place, instead of the header bolt.

4. The long skinny bracket you have sitting to the right of the PS pump goes with the bolt hole that looks like it's at the top in the pic, to the front of the block. The bracket is upside-down in the pic.

5. The other end of that bracket, where it sort of wraps around, will go on the stud you just put back in step 3, with a nut.

6. The bracket that looks sort of like a pistol goes with what looks like the stock on the front of the pass side of the WP, and the end of the barrel at the bottom of the alt. The alt needs the stock spacer on it, plus the thickness of a washer. Add a washer between the spacer and the head before you slide the LONG bolt through the pistol bracket and the alt & spacer.

Here's a picture of my power steering pump mounted to my engine. I've used no more than what you have pictured, apart from the spacer you can see which links the bracket to the exhaust manifold/header stud. Originally there was an additional bracket which also held the air conditioning compressor, but that's long gone and the power steering pump is fine without it.
