AC bracket 1970 issues

    Hi all,

    I’ve recently gone from a 350 to 455 in my 1970 GS350

    I’ve sourced this alternator /AC bracket.
    Is this aluminium bracket that is pictured the correct one for a 1970 Buick 455?

    Correct me from wrong but I’ve heard that the riviera alternator/AC brackets are different?

    Top AC bracket is not lining up as pictured, I have since replaced the bracket that goes from the Timing Cover to the alternator, I purchased this from the parts place which is 68 to 70.

    The top compressor bracket is obviously a 71 to 72 Bracket.
    Which compressor bracket do I need to make this work correctly or is the bottom aluminium bracket the incorrect one?
