The reservior bolts to the booster mount.
What year/series BBC brackets are you looking for?  An 85 1/2T didn't come with a 454?

85 chevy 1 ton 2 wd with 454 and Manual 4 speed tranny. A couple of years go I installed a set of 396 heads  and for some reason I cut the bracket up to make some other things work but now I am reinstalling AC back into the truck

AC pics,  real crowded with the dual airpumps and everything connected as it came out of the factory this way.

I figured how to do it.  My KB #'s on my pics show higher than 128 but obviously OK here.  Lookout now,...

I really appreaciate you taking the time to take photo's

What size engine is that? I cant tell if its a BBC or SBC

[zieg85]

7.4L, the big boy.  That is the emission set up for the 8600GVW trucks in 85 with that engine and a stick.  It is very crowded under the hood.

Mine had a factory 454(7.4) as well. it a 1985 1 ton dually 2wd crew cab camper special. But my smog pump was origanaly located under the Alt. when I bought the truck I had all of the AC installed but shortly after I bought it I changed the factory Peanut port heads to a set of closed chamber 396 heads. But for some reason I decided to take the compressor off and I then modified the factory AC bracket ( what a dumb aXX)

I stripped the truck to the frame this summer, I installed bel tech drop spindles 4" in front and 4" in back. The engine was removed from my stepside it's a 454 bored .030 with pop up pistons and a rebuilt set of 781 casting heads, Should be around 10.0 to 1 check out my webshots website to see my progress.

1 tons have different emission numbers that are required by the feds, probably why you only have the one smog pump.  Was yours always a stick?  That makes a difference as well.  Sounds like a neat project.  If you need any other pictures just holler out.  I will eventually make mine like new.  Got too many other projects that come first.  Have a great day.

Yes mine was a factory 4 speed and 4.56 gears the engine had never been out until I bought it . Since I have been a kid I always wanted a lowered dually. It's still functional I will be using it to pull my car trailer with my 77 stepside on that to the racetrack.
