Power steering pump bracket?

So I am in the process of converting over to power steering and power disc brakes. My problem now is, I have the power steering bracket for the 352FE block but the bracket on the power steering pump itself isnt the correct bracket. Can someone please post a pic of there FE with power steering, mainly the brackets. The donor truck has a 302 in it, so I know that the bracket wont fit. Not only that, the bracket thats on the pump is just angle iron with holes and slots, which wont line up with the FE bracket. I am just unsure of what the correct bracket on the pump side looks like.

Here you go. Note the three slots. The pump mounts on a separate bracket. I see'em in the JY all the time. :

Well I guess I dont have the right power steering pump bracket for the block, cause mine is a 2 piece. It mounts up at the same points as yours but it looks different. Thanks for the pics.

It's purty ain't it? I wish that were my engine... that's in an early 60s F-series I saw a couple of years ago. 'took the shots cuz it's cleanliness and level of detail is what I will be striving for... except for the air cleaner. That style would be toast if it backfired out of the carb.

I have seen two different types of brackets for power steering pumps. The one in the picture is the nicer of the two and I would guess also of newer design. The other style, which I use, mounts in the same place but doesn't have a sliding bracket that the pump mounts to. It is just a bracket and a brace against the cylinder head with spacers. The pump mounts by three bolts, one pivot bolt and two that slide in their slots for belt tension. If you need a picture let me know. That is assuming I can figure out how to post it.

Yeah, that sounds like the one I have. I believe you cant post pics in threads til you have at least 25 post. But I believe you can put pics on your profile album.
