    I am looking for power steering brackets for a 455 in a Skylark. It is a 72 455 in a 69 Skylark. I assume all 68-72 BBB power steering brackets would work, possible big car?

    Let me know what you have. I am in St. Louis MO.

    71 & 72 brackets and pumps are different than 69 / 70 though!

    You need to get your waterpump and crank pulley numbers jiving with the correct water pump length, long or short then get the appropriate year powersteering brackets. It all has to be right or there will be issues....Jim

    Maybe this will help......

    1970 Pulleys without A/C should be:
    Water Pump # 1375141
    Crank # 1375142


    1970 Pulleys with A/C should be:
    Water Pump # 1375146
    Crank # 1375143


    1971 & 72 Without A/C should be:
    Water Pump # 1238156
    Crank # 1235779


    1971 & 72 With A/C should be:
    Water Pump # 1235778
    Crank # 1235777

    71 & 72 Motors with A/C would have the LONG Shaft Water Pump
    (The above stats/specs are a repost of member ToddsGS, thanks Todd)

    I have the 72 brackets ready to go here:
