I'm putting #13 heads on my YS block, '75 T/A and I need some help figuring out which brackets I need to make it work. I already have one bracket (the big one that bolts to the head) but just by looking at it, it doesn't look like the pulleys will line up and I can't figure out how the PS pump bolts on to it. If anyone has this setup ('70 GTO, RA3, auto), and has a digital camera, can you please email me some pics or post them here so I can solve this problem before I put the heads on? Thanks.

I have #13's on my GTO. I am going to install AC (once I locate a compressor and brackets). But right now, the AC compressor and brackets are not there. Everything else is there though (Generator, Power Steering,...).
My 72 GTO was originally an AC car but the compressor did not function. So, as a STUPID 17 year old kid in 1986, I took off all of the AC Componetry and threw it ALL away. Everything. Gone. DUMB!!!! So, now I'm getting out my wallet and buying it all back. Ouch. I will take some pics tonight and forward tomorrow... Dan

Thanks, I'm not worried about the AC stuff, mine was broken so I yanked it (keeping all the parts though).

I sent the pics of my engine brackets to your email that you have listed. Let me know if you need additional pics. In hindsight, I think that I should have taken off my alternator for different angles of the brackets....
Good luck! Dan

Thanks for the pics Dan [img]smile.gif[/img] . It looks like your PS pump is tilted pretty far to the side, mine sticks straight up. Does anyone know if it would be a problem to tilt mine or do I deed to find a GTO pump? Also, my alternator only has ears for the bolts on the front, not on the back and the front like yours (sigh) . . . Maybe I need more parts than I thought

The brackets are similar from 1968 to 1970. The 1970 used a unique upper alternator bracket that is large and covers most of the alternator. I don't have a picture of this setup but I'm sure somebody on the list can help.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
