A/C Delete - what to do with ps pump?
What did you guys do for mounting the ps pump after you deleted the a/c from your car? My ps pump bracket is tied into the a/c compressor bracket. I would like to get rid of it, but I'm not sure how to support the ps pump on that side.
If you have a pic, please post it. I am looking for ideas.
Thanks.

What about tying the breacket that is bolted onto the head to the ps pump bracket? Or does the ps pump have enough support without those brackets being tied together?
I was going to just cut down the a/c compressor bracket, but I would rather get rid of the bracket on the head for a cleaner looking installation.

The power steering pump should be held on by 3 bolts, those three bolts give enough support. Cut the bracket if you want, it will be more aesthetically pleasing.

I ran into the same problem when I did my delete a couple weeks ago I just cut the top of the bracket off.
