I'm looking for a complete A.I.R. (smog pump) setup for a '72-'74 350. These are common on the '73-'74 LaSabres. I need all the brackets, hoses, fittings and a water pump pulley with provisions for power steering and air conditioning as well. I'm sure these are easy to find in the salvage yard but thought I'd try here first. Thanks in advance, Steve
I don't know if they are the same or not, I'm sure some of the parts are. Maybe someone will chime in. Thanks
The 72 has it's own A.I.R. pump mounting bracket that's cast aluminum, but 73 and 74 should all be the same. Other than the water pump pulley and the hose that runs from the diverter valve to the check valve on the intake, the 350 and 455 set-up should be the same.
Thanks, that's what I need. The pump, bracket, water pump pulley and hose that would be correct for a '72 GS350. Do you have any of these pieces. Steve
a.i.r. I have a clean complete setup off of a 73 455 out of an estate wagon, the small pulley, the mounting brackets, the hoses etc. I was going to keep it for a 100% loaded display engine for the shop but if it helps get you going, how's $85.00 shipped?
update Hoi Steve, Here is the pic of the parts. The pump seems real stiff. Rebuilt pumps are available for around $60.00. So, the pulleys and brackets with bolts and a core is what I guess it boils down to. Call me or I can call you to chat, if you wnat to. My cell # 206.793.7456, or send me your # and I can call you.

One thing I forgot to mention was that the pump mounting bracket is different for a full size and a Skylark/GS. I'm fairly sure the water pump pulley is different for a 455 and 350, along with the hose that runs between the diverter valve and the check valve.
