Looking to see if anyone can post pics of their stock power steering pump using another bracket instead of the stock brackets.
 
I would post pics but Power steering has long been a lost option :mrgreen: Manual streering is like power to me I love it.

+1 i put in a manual box. i like it better then the power steering.
 
I didn't ask about who liked manual steering or power steering. I asked for pics of the brackets that people are using with their stock P series power steering pump. I can easily swap to manual if I wanted to for $20, but then I wouldn't be posting here.

Damn I gave away all my old stock brackets when I installed the serp drive. If I had known a month ago you needed one I would have just sent it to you.
 
I still have most of the stock brackets, but I figured go with something that looks a little better than what I got. That and I got rid of that big exhaust stud that hangs out of the head for the bracket that bolts to the back of the pump.

I never liked the way that looked ether.
The only other set ups I have seen are like billet stuff or March serpentine ,but I think you would have to run their whole set up.
I sure like my GM serp drive. I used to throw my alt belt on hard acceleration even with a larger pulley, then my alt would barely charge it was turning so slow. I have had no issues with the serp drive. I don't miss the noisy v-belts ether.

I've thought about a serp setup but I like my v belts and haven't had any issues throwing belts or them squeaking in years.
I bought my car in1982.
Here in Arizona the summers. With the extreme heat 120 in the shade.
I never could get a set of V-Belts to live long enough to not start going (squeak,) after a 7 month summer. 😳
I don't miss it.
