The one on the far left looks like it could be for alt.? The two next to that are for the power steering pump setup I am pretty sure , at least they look a lot like mine.

I agree with Bruce, and believe the bottom right one that's triangle shaped is also power steering. The one above it looks cast iron. I'd like to see different angles of it but I believe it's a compressor bracket. John

Hi Mike
Well, that looks like the same side to me But I'm pretty sure that's the piece that goes between the compressor and the front of the passenger side head. Do you have a motor you can hold it up against? John

The "C" shaped bracket and the one below it are two of the three parts of the power steering pump bracket for 1968-1990. The far left bracket is for the passenger side alternator, when A/C is installed, I think. Pretty sure the rest are A/C compressor brackets.

well ,as my engine is a 66 it would seem the brackets were just for adding weight to my shipment .

one more Q !!! Ever seen these pistons before . Sure they are cast ,hi comp, .030 over , came with Mahle rings but never heard of em . My bro sent them for me .

Looks likr RC on them but the logo may have an encompassing A over it ?
