How to mount Vacuum pump with AC Compressor?
 
Not sure whether to post this is the street or race section. Wondering if anyone has mounted an evac vacuum pump along with an ac compressor, electric water pump and alternator? If so, where did you put the vac pump? I have manual steering so no power steering pump so there could be some room on the drivers side. Almost all vac pumps seem to go on the passenger side head but with ac compressor there that doesn't seem to be an option.

Did Pontiacs have a smog pump similar to the early seventies Cadillacs? If so perhaps you van find and adapt the brackets to fit an evac compressor..

I was planning on doing something similar for an air(ride)pump for a seventies caddy..

Good point. Looks like the smog pump was mounted up high between the ac compressor and water pump. I will need to get this engine all assembled and see where its possible to fit.

Interesting. What did you do for the lower bracket?

I can send you a better pic later today but call Butler performance. They sent me the pump and kit with a S type piece of steel for the lower bracket
