Header install A/C Bracket Mounting
I just wanted to post this information in case anyone ever does a header upgrade, throws away the old bolts, then realizes they need the bolt for the A/C & Power Steering Bracket (like I DID). My Camaro has the AC & PS on the Driver's side.
Of Course, you have to cut the bracket because it won't wrap around the header port to the second bolt.
You'll need a bolt that is ~ 3 3/8" Long. Consider one end as the header bolt...1 1/4" including the head. Then you need a spacer that is 1 1/8" long. Then you bolt your bracket against the spacer & you are in business. See attached diagram:
