Shifter mounting bracket and an alternator/A/C compressor mounting bracket used for when you install headers. Maybe you need those?

the top one with the two holes and two slots is the alternator mounting bracket. the two holes are mounted to the cylinder head around the header tube. there should be a double "L" bracket that mount to the two slots and the alternator is mounted to that.
the lower bracket is a shifter mount for a hurst shifter. the bracket mounts to the tail shaft of the transmission and the shifter mounts to it. the threaded holes in the bracket are what the shifter attaches to.

That alternator bracket comes with some header kits. looks like yours is similar to:

Hooker Alternator Brackets 10927HKR

You still need the other half below to make it bolt up.

Your alternator bracket is for left side mounting. The other in the picture is for right side mounting.
