saginaw steering on a v8

[nuclearlemon]

hitting here since i figured more here are running chebbies and saginaw. got all the brackets from my motor for my piggie, but they are totally different than the brackets on my last two v8s and i'll be danged if i can figure them out? anyone got these brackets that can shoot me a pic? they came off the motor, but someone else pulled them off and it was almost 7 months ago, so they don't remember either.

the bracket that is currently attached to your steering pump is the same one on mine..it mounts to the drivers side high and one of the bolts goes through into the water pump the other swivels and goes into the block


the smaller peice to the lower right of the pic. is like a stationary bracket and attached to the stock cast iron manifold and into one of the holes in the main steering pump bracket, however the other peice to the lower left i didn't have on my setup....

my other setups have had the bracket around the pump, then, a simple little bracket to the manifolt/header bolts and front of the head.

myself and four others have tried these brackets every way we can think of and we can't make em work,...but they came off the same setup?

I have the same set up. bandy rooster is right on with the two pcs. he new about.
The 3rd pcs is for mounting the AC compressor. You don't need it if you aren't going to mount the stock chev compressor. I use mine for an air compressor.

It mounts like this.....The picture of the bracket is upside down. The "point" on the bottom right of the pic bolts to the hole just left of the pump cap. It is sandwiched in between the pump and Head with a bolt in the "point" hole into the block.The ribs go to the front. The rest of the holes bolt to the Head.This now forms the front of the compressor mount. You still need another mounted to the intake manifold for the rear mount.Eventually I plan on makeing these front and rear mounts work on a York, instead of the ac delco. This is all on the Driver side of the motor.

Hope this helps. I remember going back to the bone yard looking at this same thing.
