Re: need brakets for my accesorys

I went through several different p/s brackets - the only thing that worked for me was the MARCH brackets. I used 20165, but this was for a 1992 p/s pump - depending on which March bracket you use, you might have to change pumps - but the pumps are cheaper than the brackets - the March brackets are pricey at just over $100 each, so pick best match (based on advise from Summit or Jegs or March tech support, then if needed swap pumps.

The p/s brackets are a bit of a PITA - they can send men to the moon but can't make a simple SBC p/s bracket that works You'll need a handful of washers to get it to line up, and you'll have to install/reinstall several times to get it right (changing washer configurations each time).

Alt brackets are easy - hundreds available and most any seems to work (assuming your alt has mounting holes at 12oclock and 6 oclock. I used a Mr. Gasket bracket off the shelf at autozone for $30.

You can see some underhood pics of mine at http://s287.photobucket.com/albums/ll121/jw_baum/92RS/

I have no A/C and no smog pump - just alt, p/s, water pump.
