I need engine pics

I need some pics of a Iroc-Z 85-87 V-belt setup with A/C, with the focus on the lower (and consequently less photographed) part of the motor. Any pics would be great. I'm having a little trouble with some brackets and I forgot what it all looked like when it was together
Any pics would be great.

Is your A/C compressor on the top left side of the engine - the right when you look from the front?

Also do you have the power steering pump under the A/C compressor, with the smog pump under the alternator?

That is the arrangement on a 83 Z28. I can get a pic if it is the same.

I took ages to get all the brackets somewhere to live, they are a real puzzle.

Thanks for the pics guys but I have finally (after much puzzling and looking at my old pictures) found out where everything goes. I think I'll take a pic and post it when I get around to it so you can see what I was talking about.

Andy: Yes, my arrangement is the 85-87 V-belt setup with the A/C compressor and power steering under it on the driver's side and the alternator with the AIR pump under it on the passenger side. I didn't know it was the same for earlier years as well, you learn something new everyday. You can empathize with my bracket confusion
