Power Steering Pump Brackets

[198plus]

Anyone have any pics of correct power steering pump brackets for sbc.......One I have is correct for front of engine, the one for the backside looks like it bolts up to the motor mount but will not work......Maybe its for the newer style motor mounts ?????????

you will have to cut the insulator to make it fit.the early one accomodated that brkt. what ps pump are you using; early or late

it is in the truck. if you do a judicious cut you wont harm the insulator. some of the insulators do also have a metal lip that you have to trim. the originals had smaller insulators on them. I will see what I can do.
mine came out of a 62 belair s/w

there are quite a few different insulators. here are 2 different ones. one is pretty uncluttered while the other is overloaded.
where I inserted those little pieces of wood is what has to be removed if that is the type of insulator that you have and is more than likely the only ones that you can get now. you can do a clean job of cutting and it will look like that is the way that, that should look like. i did notch mine

that's what I need to know. I have the same mount.

How funny. I just went to the junk yard today and got brackets and a pump. After a lot of searching, I ended up buying a pump and brackets off a early 80's Grand Prix with a 6 cylinder motor. I dont have pics yet. One bracket bolts with 3 bolts to the front of the head. The other bolts to the #1 exhaust studs. Then the steering pump itself has a bracket hole that bolts to the water pump. Other then having hose problems matching with my steering gear box. The pump bolted on perfect.

I trimmed some of the rubber to make mine fit. I used the old 283 mount as a template and used a cut-off wheel. Wasn't a big deal and after that it snugged up fine.

I am in need of a Flow Control Valve Spring for a power steering pump for a 1966 C-10? Anybody have one

[198plus]

Problem some what fixed....... I used spacers to shim the front mounting bracket out so pulley would line up and instead of cutting into the motor mount, I cut bracket off that goes over the bottom part of motor mount that needed to be cut.........I didn't like the idea of cutting the engine mount.

It tighten up great and it all lines up !!!!!! Now I need to paint it and find a chrome pulley.

Wouldn't that come in a rebuild kit? Rockauto.com?
