1970 Air Conditioning Brackets Install Pictures

Hello...I am installing the A/C system on my 1970 C10, 350. It is a factory air truck with a long water pump. It also has headman headers (I'm trying to find a conversion bracket that works). I can't figure out how to mount the A/C brackets. I would appreciate close up pictures from the front and side (Passenger) of the brackets mounted. And if anyone has a suggestion about the header issue, it would be greatly appreciated. The bracket I bought from Summit Racing doesn't look like it will work.

Thanks!

The easier way would be to swap over the the serpentine style. Don't have to worry about the headers then. Also the hoses won't have to cross over the engine either

Here was mine on my 305 TPI motor. Factory brackets. First is a full set of brackets I sold.

Get out and drive the truck this summer and have some fun!
It sucks not being able to hear!

LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB!
After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.

Here's a pic of the brackets without the pump, hope it helps. Why does everyone's first answer always seem "make it not stock anymore"? Stock rocks.
