Kevin I will organize some photos shortly. The brackets are very simple just 2 flat plates that utilize the long bolt that the power steering pump pivots on. I do not understand what the problem is as to why you are having problems with the mounting of your pump, mine sits in its normal position as supplied by Bristol and that matter Chrysler.

The integration of my Vintage Air system is slowly progressing but as you have pointed out it isnt easy to fit the unit where the original blower and heater were sitting. I have decided to mount it in such a way that it protrudes through the floor of the shelf that the heater and blower sat on so that the bottom half of the unit sits flush on the gearbox tunnel and the top half in the engine compartment. I then need to make up a steel cover to seal the cockpit from the engine bay. To that end I have made up a plywood mock up of the firewall and heater shelf and fitted the test unit vintage air supply. I now should be able to tap into the original air box that supplies the 4 dash vents and likewise the windscreen vents.
