big block brackets

looking for pictures of the alt and power steering brackets on a 71 454.
mine were all shimmed out with washers and it looks bad. I need pics of them installed correctly.
thanks

I'll take a pic of my '68 PS and alternator setup for you and post tomorrow if nobody beats me to it. It's the same as '71 and it is correct.

I don't know how different the years are, and you didn't specify whether you have A/C or not, but here are photos of my factory setup on my '74 with A/C and P/S. Here are the three top/front mounts:

and here is the rear/lower mount:

There are actually 4 parts to the alternator mount, including the rear one which doubles as the power steering pump mount as well. The rear/lower bracket did require some "shimming" with the Hookers.
