Because it is the only bracket that fits.

I haven't worked on the Coronet for a few months but I did get around to mocking up the Corvette power steering pump and the low mount 90 amp alternator. Looks like everything lines up and fits. These two items should move me a little closer to the 21st century.

Andy is that the Land Cruiser alternator? Did you make a pulley or are you using the dual pulley setup?

Yes it is a Denso 210-0177 alternator which was OE on the Land Cruiser for a few years. It came with a dual belt pulley. I machined the front pulley off and kept the inner one. The OE pulley is made from steel and is super heavy.

Is that a one wire hookup?

I usually hook up an external switched 12 volt and a sense wire. It is just two wires to run so most anyone should be able to handle it.

Hello Andy, the alternator and power steering setup look great on your engine. Can you do the same power steering setup with one of your motor plates?

The Corvette PS housing is flat on the back and it sits forward of the motor plate so it should be fairly easy to mount it to a motor plate. Not very many cars use a motor plate and power steering at the same time so I doubt I'll bother with creating a bracket kit.

Thanks for the information. Mine will need both.

If you are working with a BB or a Hemi then there should be plenty of room. Just buy one of those pumps and a pulley and hang it in space so the belt is straight. You'll probably have about one inch of room behind the pump for the bracket. You'll have to figure how how you want to tension the belt. Any good street rod shop should be able to fabricate a mount for you. If you are working with a G3 then mounts already exist to use this pump.

"Corvette PS pump" is kinda vague , lots of years and models of Vettes out there.

Thanks, I was thinking rather the same thing. The setup looks good.

Do a google search on "Type II power steering pumps" and you'll find more info.

Here is a picture showing the back side of the PS pump. There is about 1.5 inches of space behind the pump to the front of the block so there is plenty of space to build a bracket that would mount on a motor plate.

Yep,

Thanks for the picture. I think that would make for a clean installation.

Yes, I use 12 point ARP stainless on all of my builds.

The ARP Fasteners are the best I have found, And the 12 point fasteners are very appealing to the eye as well as very high quality.
