Need some help with f-body acc. brackets
 

Getting ready to put my rebuilt LQ4 into my 81Z and I need some help with the f-body accessory brackets. I need to know which brackets and idler/tensioner pulleys are needed for the alternator and pwr steering pump. I see two are needed for the alt and only see one for the pwr steering? The tensioner/idlers I have no clue.

Anyone start with a bare engine like myself and successfully find all the missing brackets, etc? I need some part numbers or a link to some...my search didn't bring up too much.

I think this would be perfect as a sticky for the uneducated like myself.

It IS a sticky, fellas.

Oh yeah, duh. :thinker:

Those look like c5 parts not f-body parts to me.

has some things you might be looking for. I'm searchin for ya..

67RSCamaroVette - thanks for looking for me but I found out what I need. I went down to my local GM dealer and "commondeered" their computer. Here's what I found...these are all F-body applications.

Alternator:
Rear bracket P/N 12556915
Front bracket P/N 12563327

Power steering:
Main bracket P/N 12561584
Front brace P/N 12555693

These part numbers are right from GM's computers and they also list all the idlers/tensioners as well as the mounting hardware (which I'll get later)

Hopefully these can help others out.

I've actually been talking to someone about putting together a packaged accessory drive kit with all the stock mounting brackets and bolts etc. I know this doesn't help you now, but it's in the works. ;)
