Hi Guys. I just purchased a 1966 Cyclone GT convertible with 390 4 speed and factory in dash AC. The previous owner rebuilt the motor, but never finished reinstalling all of the brackets and accessories on the front of the motor, so I am trying to figure it out. The PS pump is on, but I am not sure if its on the correct bracket. Photos I have seen on line show 2 tension pulleys on the AC belt, 1 off the alternator bracket, and another off the power steering bracket. My PS bracket does not have provisions for a 2nd tension pulley. My bracket is stamped, and the one I saw in the photo looks to be cast... Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks Mike. Mine is a 66, so my AC and PS brackets are different..... Here is a pic of what I think they should look like: http://s1167.photobucket.com/user/sabatona/media/390acbrackets_zpsii7afnhd.jpg.html" rel="nofollow">  Here is a pic of what I have: http://s1167.photobucket.com/user/sabatona/media/20170117_192128_zpsampmdo5h.jpg.html" rel="nofollow">  Any help with a photo or a part # for the correct bracket would be greatly appreciated...Len ------------- 73 GTS 351 4V Q Code Blue Glow/Blue Int 1 of 1 |
