71 Cutlass 350 Compressor Bracket

Hey guys I got my car with an aftermarket sanden compressor and I took that off awhile ago when i started to restore the entire a/c system. Now that Im at the end i need to install my new Pro6ten Compressor, So im looking for original brackets that this engine came with. If you guys can post a nice picture of what the setup looks like that will be great. I have a lot of parts for buick and olds and I need to see which one is correct. I have the bottom bracket, the c shaped bracket and the long bent bracket. Thanks.

Note that the two thin round pieces bolt to the comrpessor. You need a special head bolt with a threaded section above the head (or an extra-long stud) for the bracket that wraps over the valve cover.
It's unfortunately normal to have problems aligning the mount on the intake for that bracket. Sometimes you can hog out the bracket. Sometimes I've had to fill the intake's bolt hole with alum threaded rod and drill/tap a new hole.
