Cool

Jerry, what are the odds that you might have a pattern for that? I'm thinking about doing something similar, but using an old Paxton bracket to relocate the P/S pump and A/C compressor...

Looks great!!! I'm jealous...

Question

Ok, I'm being dumb here, but did you not relocate the A/C and P/S stuff (use the stock bracket and just piggy-back your bracket?

Thanks,

Kevin I just copied the lower half of the powerdyne bracket and the upper part of the novi bracket( I bought a used setup off of a 4.6 F150)and cut it all out with a jig saw. And yes the bracket's are stacked

I still need to cut a groove for the acc belt to pass thru and build a brace from the blower to the block just to make sure it doesn't stress the mounting bolts.

And when it's all finished i will make an templete for anyone who wants it but be warned it's not an easy task

Whoa! Great job. Looks like the only thing that needs now is a pass by the buffer

Just curious though, due to that outlet are you going to need a serious "s" turn in the discharge tube to make it back to the throttle body, or is it just the angle of the picture?

Oh, put me on the list for a pattern, too! I know my SN92 will not last forever!

Yep you would need a serious S turn to make it to the throttle body....But it is pointed right at my intercooler
