I'd have to look, but it's whatever is hanging on the slant right now....Would the same apply to the p/s pump?

Read through the big block stuff, and I plan on using all the Schumacher stuff (tri y's and conversion mounts) but, I plan on keeping the power steering, and I still have an A/C compressor and all the lines, so I'm wondering if I can find brackets for this as well....where do I come up with big...

My daughter has been waiting for two weeks to come up and work on the wagon, so, I had the pushrod and valve cover gasket waiting, dropped the pushrod in, and it fell down and stopped when it hit the cam......the lifter has apparently popped out of it's bore, and I'll have to do a bunch of...

Anybody make these for an F-body?
