So I got this ac bracket quite a few months ago off of Ebay that was suppose to be off of a 1990 Mustang GT. Well it looks almost the same. It even mounts on the water pump & ac perfect. The only difference is that where the pwr steering pump mounts the bracket sticks out about 0.5" from the way its suppose to be. Can anyone tell me what engine this bracket is for?

Pic added in later post.

Thanks!

I believe there is a smaller bracket that actually bolts to the head.. I broke mine I remember and just got an ac delete kit, but I remember there being another small bracket

The Stang brackets are unique to Stangs.A T-Bird or Cougar bracket would bolt on andaccept your a/c compressor and steering pump,but,it would probably hit the hood.

I circled where the pwr steering pump goes. See how it raises out....whereas a mustang's is flat with the rest of the bracket. Besides that spot it bolts right up. I just need to know what it fits so I can get rid of it.
