I need the large cast aluminum alt/AC bracket or base from a 69 or 70 Riv only. They are specific from what I see.
I don't know how to tell the difference to explain it, but I have one here that is obviously not from a Riv. if you can send me pics I can tell you which one I think it is.
Please post pics....I have parted so many of them out and all the alum and steel brkts look the same.
I will. Mine is at a shop now where they are trying to weld it up. When I get it back I will add pics.
Hey Briz,take a picture from the other side,the way it is,I cannot see anything.I might have one also.Bruno.
I have Mark DiConti's article on the site and he has the 2 side-by-side and there is very very little difference...he also has the part numbers listed. http://www.buickperformanceclub.com/455pulleybrkts.htm
The part you cant see is nearly exactly the same as the non A/C mount. Unfortunately I cannot take another picture as the engine now sits under the hood of the Riv.
??? I'm afraid you couldn't be more wrong! Look at the distance from the bottom bolt hole to where the AC compressor mounts. The difference is several inches, preventing a Riviera hood from closing.
