Need pic of how power steering mounts. (v belt) Searched already
Need a pic of how the power steering pump mounts with a v-belt setup. Just need to know how the brackets go and such. Searched and found nothing that could help me on the first 5 pages of results, any help is appreciated! Thanks!

I think not.... The alt is on the pass side, the PS pump is on the driver's side.Put this one on first. Goes on the front of the block, and the front-most exh manifold stud, after it's installed through the manifold.

Here's how it goes over the mainfold. That little round part sticking out the back of the A/C bracket, goes into a hole in the other A/C bracket, which goes on on top of that first bracket, on the 2 front exh man bolts.

Then the pump itself goes on, like this. Note that there are 4 attachment points; the stud in the front of the head, the adj bolt into the water pump, one bolt on the back of it, and one nut on the back, down low.

I think I can explain what happened. I probably saw that it was a V-belt question, and out of intellect I clicked it to learn something new. But then, yeah, I probably thought in my head "oh you know what, lets answer this because I'm an idiot"
AS I SAID, I AM JUST WALKING OUT OF THIS THREAD RIGHT NOW!!!
