302 power steering pump bracket needed

Guys,

I'm preparing to do a toyota power steering box conversion. I need a power steering pump bracket and need to know if I need an original or if there is an off the shelf bracket that will work. I have a 77 Ford Thunderbird standard 302 5.0L in my truck. Any help would be appreciated and I'll buy the bracket if you have one. I included some photos of my water pump and head.

I have a Borgeson PS pump bracket that accepts a Saginaw pump if you're interested. Had it on my 302 but went with a complete pulley system. Missing one bolt.

I have a pump and bracket that came off of a 302 with the Ford pump if you are interested.

Later!

Mr. Ed,

I am interested. Is the pump new or used? How much are you asking for the parts?

1967/77 with the Ford/Thompson P/S pump uses a different P/S pressure hose and mounting brackets than 1978 and later with the Ford C-II P/S pump.

The Ford/Thompson pump has a steel reservoir, the P/S pressure hose threads onto the pump.

The C-II pump has a plastic reservoir, the P/S pressure hose attaches to the pump using a qwik connect fitting.

The C-II pump is also a different shape than the Ford/Thompson pump, so the mounting brackets are different.
