[/IMG] Looks to me like the 3 bolt holes in the bracket mount onto the passenger side head. You will have to take off the ground cable and the other bolt in the head. The bracket looks like it is threaded to accept the ground cable once it is in place. Now the flat side with the three bosses on it should be verticle. The compressor should then bolt to the three bosses.
That's my guess from the photos anyhow. Hope it helps ya.

Looking at the marks on the bracket it looks as if it had spacers between it and the heads. That would probably allow it to clear the valve cover.
This obviously isn't a stock bracket. I assume you are using F-body accessories. Do you not have enough room for the stock F-body A/C bracket?

I have seen aluminum bar stock at some of the home supply stores but you might just want to try some stacks of washers until you see if it is going to work and line up. That way you can play with the thickness by adding or deleting washers.
