Subject: Re: Engine bracket photos for C4Williams by rayquayle on 2012/6/18 17:56:00 Not sure if it'll be much help at this point, but this '86 is a bit closer to your '85. I haven't completed all the bracketry, accessories and fasteners, so I know things still need some work and ain't all that pretty yet. This is just to show the OP what the early L98 Accessory Brackets look like going back together. Water pump only showing the two studs on right side of pump (left in photo).  Power Steering Pump Bracket.  Power Steering Pump installed, showing the botom bolt going into the block.  AIR Pump.  AIR Pump Bracket installed.  AIR Pump mounted in Bracket.  Bottom of AIR Pump Bracket.  AIR Pump reinforcing Brace.  Alternator, Bracket and Brace.  Alternator mounts here.  Alternator reinforcing Brace.  A/C Bracket.  A/C Bracket installed for illustration. Mount A/C Compressor in the bracket before installing on the car to eliminate interference with valve cover on bolt that installes from rear.  A/C Bracket and Compressor installed.  A/C Bracket and Compressor installed (bottom view). Notice that I've replaced the stock TORX bolt with the flat side that goes in the bottom for an Allen head bolt to make life a bit easier.  A/C Bracket and Compressor reinforcing Brace.  Tensioner/Idler Pully.  Tensioner/Idler Pully Installed.  Belt Installed.  I haven't done anything with the AIR piping or Valves yet. Let me know if you need shots of that. Best of luck. |
