    Power steering bracket issue- Small Block 400

     



    Here's my issue:

    I have a SB400 mounted in a 74 Landcruiser FJ40. The engine is mounted with some old cradle style mounts that attach to the front of the block. Because of this, a normal pump bracket will not work as there is not enough room for the pump down low. I have a long water pump and I'm using the old style saginaw pump with the cap on top. Does anyone know of a PS pump bracket that will raise the pump up out of the usual low mounting position? Something that attaches to the head instead of the block maybe? I'm in the middle of a power steering conversion and the bracket is the one thing left to find to make it work. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks.

    I made my own as there wasn't one for my application. They aren't that difficult.
