The smog air pump and alternator share one mounting bracket, with the air pump mounted above the alternator. The air pump is driven by a short v-belt connected to the alternator pulley. This is on the passenger side of the engine.

The A/C compressor, if factory and not dealer installed, is mounted high on the driver's side of the engine. Located below the compressor, is the P/S pump.
