Power Steering mount with AC

Calcommon wrote: Gentleman, I would like to install aftermarket in dash AC in a V8 '69 Javelin. I understand I can convert a stock AC bracket for a sanden style compressor, but where should the power steering pump go? Mount it down low where it is now? Will I need a belt back idler? mount it up high? It's a non stock daily driver. I will keep the 343 of course! I really appreciate the knowledge base on this forum, I would not be able to get this car back on the road without you guys.

Power steering pump is on driver side front of engine. A/C is on right front of engine.

Thanks for the feedback, the AC builds in the HVAC section prompted the question. I see where the power steering pump is mounted up high on the engine, where as mine ( non AC car) is mounted down lower.

Couldn't be too much lower... my non power steering setup for 71 uses all the brackets for the pump to mount, just has a cage type mount for a pulley for the A/C belt, to tension with. All mounts proper in respect of how ps would fit. I wonder if your brackets are setup oddly?
