Default Motor Brackets

Are the alternator, power steering, and AC compressor brackets the same for all 400 Pontiac engines? I am looking for all of these brackets for my upcoming engine replacement in my son's 78 Trans Am. I see a lot of "Pontiac 400" brackets out there, but does one size fit all or do I need to look for ones specifically for the TA model?

I know that the 70 birds had a different setup of brackets for alt & p/s.

The A/C pivot brackets are largely body type specific. They may bolt onto the head, but that doesn't mean that it won't hit the upper control arm (as I found out). Also, there are other upper bracket differences due to changes in intake manifold (starting in 73, I think).
