Yes, looking at total height difference including spacer, which is .540.

I know others have said the 532c is one inch shorter than the R4B, but I'm going to take a measurement on that myself just to be sure.  Like they say, measure twice cut once.  I'm assuming the 4300 and a 4150 Holley is the same height but would like to know for sure.

Trying to figure out the water pump bolts and studs and all the mounting brackets, what a nightmare!  So, does the long 3/8 special stud below go in the top or bottom water jacket hole on the pump (driver side).  Also, is this where the power steering adjustment bracket goes?

The small special stud, which hole does that go in and is that for an AC idler pulley bracket?

This is an AC car with Power Steering.............anyone who would happen to have pics of the brackets and mounting hardware would be appreciated Wink

As a side bar, I am searching for  the AC compressor mounting bracket and accompanying hardware, and the idler pulley and bracket.

The long "special" stud in your picture goes in the top hole on the driver side and helps support the power steering pump. The aluminum bracket slides onto the short side of the stud than a nut goes on. Not sure where the other one goes.

Thanks Earl and Tony.  Has been a long process and still a long way to go!  At least when you finally see some color you feel like you're making progress.
