I purchased a Classic Auto Air Compressor upgrade kit for my truck. Their part #23-257.

Now I can't seem to figure out how to mount, the supplied brackets don't match up with the power steering pump brackets which incorporate the factory compressor brackets. The supplied bracket are from Alan Groves Components, their #119L. I'm thinking that if I get their PS pump bracket #402L I might be able to use both but Alan Groves says I need a different PS pump with mounting holes on the back but my existing pump seems to have them already?

well there were two different styles of ps pump brackets on the sbc motors and i dont understnd what youre trying to do, if youre just looking to go to 134A but your comprssor works fine then i would just keep all this as is. and use freon such as canned air duster freon. it is good for in place of R12 directly and actualy cools better and compatible with the R12 compressor oil. look it up..
