Well see Scott, it doesn't look exactly like that. The guy who converted it made a lot of custom brackets and such. I was hoping to find a clear pic of the PS pump bracket as they attach to the block. The van is not here so my memory might be playing tricks on me. I'll have a better idea when the engine is staring me right in the face.
Thanks, BenT
