argh son of a b - damn power steering conversion NO brackets work

trying to button up this forsaken truck and every single thing these days is a roadblock - not the least of which is the damn power steering conversion.

should have been simple - i have a 63 c10 with the stock 283, no AC, and the alternator is mounted in the upper right side of the engine.

i have everything done but installing the pow steering pump. now have spent 80$ on 2 brackets - neither of which work.

here is the pump i have: http://www.autozone.com/autozone/par...6930_2558_7023

the first is this one from jegs - i was directed by people on the forum to get this one.
http://www.jegs.com/i/JEGS+Performan...60702/10002/-1

sure the bolt holes line up but its all cockeyed and crooked and i cant shim it to get it to be flush across the power steering pump itself.

so i bought this one: http://www.jegs.com/i/JEGS+Performan...60795/10002/-1 based on what jegs said. this one isnt even close as it completely gets in the way of the belt to the alternator.

i am about to throw in the towel. does anyone have any insight - part numbers and parts sources would be great. i am seriously ready to take a match to this blasted thing.
