Thread: bracket help for 80 el camino

Tweet

i have a 1980 el camino with a 305 i just put some headers on it and and dont have no way to bolt up ac compresser and power steering pump was wondering if anyone could help me with this problem thanks

Ummm....I don't know.....maybe call the header manufacturer and see it they have a relocation kit for the compressor and pump?

If I remember correctly when I removed my AC pump on my 80 Malibu, the bracket mounted to the intake, water pump and bolts off of the engine where the exhaust bolts up. The power steering bracket bolts to the water pump, bolt hole on head and exhaust bolt to the head. The bolts for the exhaust mounting you just need to use a spacer and a longer bolt. If you don’t have the brackets they should be easy to find in the bone yard. Or you could use one of the many after market set ups if you are looking for a cleaner look. Mike

The cam that is in the engine ,ta9250 is the only markings on it.Is there any web or catalog,or company that would help me identifym it.
