Can someone please post some pictures of the A/C brackets on the 440 motor. Is the Alternator adjusting bracket the same for several years? How about the H spacer behind the idler pulley?

I posted all of these for you on C-C.com. Did you not see all of the pictures?
The big block A/C alternator brackets were the same. It had a spacer attached to it that completed the "H" spacer to level it for the 2 bolt idler to tighten the fan and water pump belt.

I did, Thanks. The H spacer you have behind the idler pulley does not appear to be original. I have an H spacer, but the top and the bottom both measure 2". My alternator adjusting bracket looks like yours with the built in spacer that goes to the water pump housing, however when you use the equal length H spacer, it is about 1/2 short on The top of the H spacer from the water pump. Is the H spacer supposed to have another spacer added to it on the top, or do I have the wrong H spacer?
