    I am trying to re-install power steering for my 74 but have not found the correct brackets, any guidance on what i need and how to find them? I got the car without PS, but is used to have it, i have all the parts, pump, lines but no brackets. Also, if anyone has a photo of what it should look like, that would be great.

    Thank you

    Brackets for 302 from 1970 through most of the '70s are generally same... Meaning, same were used on 302 Mustang, Torino, Galaxie etc...

    There are basically 2 brackets, one bolts to the front and back of the pump and the other bolts to the water pump and front of the power steering pump bracket.

    Yep...

    For non A/C there is a ½" spacer used at upper mounting point on head... I have a stack of washers in mine, camouflaged with heat shrink...
