Need pictures of stock 1968 327 power steering mounting bracket and pulley set up
Hello I am back working on setting up my 68 C20 with the correct factor pulley system. Back in the day power steering steering was added and they had the pulleys all messed up. spacers in the alternator back moving it out from the engine by 2 inches wrong water pump pulley and crank pulley.
I have found the correct short 2 groove crank pulley and moved the alternator back to the original position. I am ordering the correct short water pump deep singe groove pulley. My power steering pulley is about 1/2 to 1 groove out to far to line up with the second v-grove on the crank pulley. I am sure it has the wrong power steering mounting bracket. what is the correct bracket for a 68 327? I need pictures of the original factory set up. I would settle for a good parts diagram. Anyone have anything? Is the attached picture the correct mount for the power steering the one of the nice painted black cast iron bracket?

Looks like the crank pulley isn’t correct. My bracket is the same on the pump as yours . This is a factory PS truck
Edit this is my 68 Golden 327 ci

I do believe it is 1968 specific possibly 1967, I think 1969 and up are different.
that is why this has been a pain in the but. Are your pictures from a 1968?

I think yours looks like the diagram in white, mine is similar to the one in orange. does that make since? can you confirm if you have the one in white? if so I think I can take the one bracket off mine and I have found where I can order the back adjuster bracket. My truck has the front power steering mount with the hole in it for the bottom bolt like in the picture in white and the rear adjuster bracket like the one on the orange diagram. I will continue to investigate the crank pulley. I just got that one, the one that was on my truck was from a later truck with the long water pump. the local mechanic that did this for my grandpa in 1970ish didn't do me any favors!

I have it figured out mostly but my fan hits my new bottom pulley that is similar to yours. I have a fixed blade fan and had to use a spacer to move the fan out. I really want to go with a clutched fan. Thanks

Couple of my trucks had a third add on pulley. 1st pulley was alternator, 2nd was AC, 3rd was power steering. Only 2 pulley ones I had were non-power steering trucks
