Most people have been selling a lot of these brackets on E-bay and so far i've been burned a few times and i wanted to let this site know what to look for the Right one and the Wrong one And it is the one braket i wish they made Right Not that Crome long reach bracket the one i'm showing first with lower bracket is the corrected One

The other one is made for the Car and it dose not have a long enough throw or your Running a real short belt

and i think these brackets use the 327 small warter pump and pullys that i show it took me a while to find out which one work

with the power steering unit and driver side altnator braket

neither of those arms look correct to me ,the factory arm i believe is mounted on the water pump not the alt bracket

Inner alternator bracket bolt is correct for arm mounting.It all comes off together.

The longer arm is the 68 and earlier pattern, while the shorter arm is the 69 and later pattern:

The earlier style bracket mounts to the water pump and exhaust manifold, while the later style mount to the head.

That's still a valid GM part number nowdays. I bought a few at the dealership when I was in a bind and needed one in a hurry.
