Power steering clearance issues
Ok Grand Cherokee P/S box upgrade went easy. Now for the install of my billet specialties serpentine upgrade kit. uh ohhh Saginaw style pump will not fit it is all up on the steering box. Called Billet Specialties and they said my sales person should have told me that would be a problem... he did not mention it

There has to be another bracket that relocates the pump enough to clear the box?
I searched all around and finally called march performance and their tech guy said that his bracket part # 20151 would definetly move my pump up and out of the way but I'm worried that it won't line up with the rest of the billet specialties kit (already installed)
Any one have experience with this?
66 chevelle with 396 with no A/C long water pump with the multiple serpentine belt system from billet specialties (not single belt) part #FM2221PC the mid mount alternator fm bracket system here's the link http://www.billetspecialties.com/item.asp?cid=4&scid=143&pid=747

03-12-2010 #2Not an easy fix but you could fab a bracket. Make the bracket the same thickness as the spacers that go between the PS and WP bracket and use the upper block hole that I circled in the below pic. Bolt the new bracket to the WP and the original to the new one. You would have to modify/fab the steel lower bracket that goes to the WP.
quick photochop example.

Problem solved thanks March performance. The bracket had the exact same spacer size so I knew I was home free. She is almost done. Thanks for the mock up LSx but i'm so glad i didn't have to fab something
