mounting AC compresser and PS pump

I got a 1987 Trans AM with the engine torn a part and now I have put a 305 tpi engine in but do not know what kind of brackets or how they mount up. I know they go on the left side with the AC compresser above the PS pump. Can anyone tell me what mounts I should have? If anybody has pictures showing this I would appreciate it.
Also are there any detailed wire diagrams for these cars that would help me on figuring where all the wires hook up?
Thank you,
Rick

poncorick,
These are from a Carb '82 (sort-of).

They will be the same for the '87.

Except the small bracket that mounts to the front intake manifold mount bolts won't be a lifting eye (but if that's what you find, there's no problem with that).

Thank you for your help, I seem to have the brackets but had no idea of how they bolted up and for what the brackets were for.
The pictures have been a big help.
