Power steering pump bracket spacer?
i am in the process of making the swap to power steering in my 69 ranger with 360 fe. i put the pump in place just to see how it bolts up. the 2 bolts to the water pump fit nicely, but it seem i am missing some kind of spacer where the bracket bolts to the head.
am i missing somthing? should there be a spacer?

bought the pump with the bracket already attached from a friend, but he did not have any of the hardware to mount to the engine.
can anyone tell me the size of the spacer? or where i might be able to find one?
Thanks for any help.

The factory AC bracket doubles as that spacer when the vehicle is AC equipped, and I just measured one that I have. That spacer should be .375" (3/8") thick. Just stack some washer until you get that thickness if needed, or drill a hole in a piece of round bar stock, the cut off a 3/8" thick piece.
