Bracket Problem, Need advise

I got a 95 350 out of a tahoe that im going to swap into my camaro. It doesnt have any accessorie brackets. I need the Alternator and Power steering pump bracket. Where can i find these? Do i need to get the factory brackets for a 92 camaro z28? I went to the gm dealership today and they told me its all one piece. I need advise, thanks.

I not sure, I'm probably wrong but it doesn't look sturdy on the bottom. I think the bottom bolt needs a mounting hole. The Power steering and alt. are on one bracket. If I took a picture of my brackets would that help you or do you have a good idea of what your looking for?

Or should i just get the factory one piece? It comes with a support link, that looks to bolt on to the exhaust manifold but im going to be using headers.

That looks about right. That looks like the backside of it in that picture.

You mean the factory Gm part? My concern is the bracket that goes on the driver side bolts in to something on the head that i dont think i have.

The gm factory one is what I was referring to. Heres what mine looks like. I think the GM factory one piece all you need. I didn't see any other brackets.
