So I'm in the process of my swap and I've decided to clean the bay up as well. So I know the factory 305 accessory brackets will bolt to the motor, but they look fugly. So I'm wondering what you guys have done for mounting your accessories.

I'm only losing my smog pump. If there isn't alot of options, can I just cut that section off the AC bracket and clean/paint the factory one to make it slightly better? I'd like to keep wiring/hose routing similar to factory so pump and alt in factory locations would be awesome, but I'm open to suggestions.

Thanks.

 

there are aftermarket serpentine systems you can buy but they cost a mint. the factory system works great. clean and paint it and throw it back on. if its a show car then spend the money on the aftermarket but it its a real car there is no reason to drop 2k on it.
