Look at ICT Billet for brackets. They use factory accessories and the bracket kits are divided up based on what crank pulley you have. Great kits and extremely affordable. I run their AC kit and alt/PS kit on my 67 Chevelle. Fits perfect.

If you’re not running AC like me, they have a kit where the PS pump is on driver side and ALt is on pass

Check out the Holley brackets. The high mount corvette type setup would certainly fit. Dirty dingo also has a setup that positions everything very similar to Holley.

LS3 or L99 manifolds will work. All other rectangular port NA manifolds are high profile truck units.
