Re: SBC Power Steering pump and brackets
I'm thinking that part of that pump bracket for 73/80 does bolt to the head though. Ok if his heads have the bolt holes as some later 327 heads did but not cool if he has the early 327 heads with no holes.
When I first put the 78 350 in my 71 I used the short water pump for the 71 and then figured out that the timing tab on the 78 engine is at 12 oclock on the timeing cover and I couldn't time it with a light. I swapped pumps and then had to go to the Bone Yard to find brackets off a squarebody pickup I got pump and all that time. that has been so long ago that I forget exactly what I used. I think I did some mixing and matching but stuck that setup in the shed when I put the Cad 500 in the truck and am not sure that it is even still in the shed.
