alternator bracket geometry

I recently put a new water pump on my 72' F-100, 302 V-8. The problem is I waited so long to finish buttoning up this project, I have forgotten how all the alternator brackets fasten back on the water pump. I am re-installing the alternator, the alternator brackets, the pullys and fan belt. I have a triangle shape bracket, a small aluminum bracket and the long adjusting bracket. Does anyone have a photo of how these go back on the water pump? Even a hand drawn sketch would do I guess. Can anyone help me?

I had the same problem on my 360. Luckily I took a bunch of digital photos before I took it apart. If I didn't delete the photos yet I will check when I get home and mail the appropriate one in .jpg.

Alternator pics

I am not sure why but I am not allowed to post attachments. I checked and your email is turned off. If you email me (click on the talisker ) I will reply with a picture of the brackets on my 360. It is out of a 73 but went into a 69 after the rebuild.

Kind of hard to see, and if you're on dial-up, sorry!

Thanks for the pic. My truck had the two brackets on opposite of your pic, but your way should work.
