Default How many brackets do I need for my BB?

I read on the Eclkers page that they have like 10 brackets for the Alternator and Power Steering pump!! I can't understand why you need so many brackets. I'm not doing a Bloomington Restoration just a nice driver. What is the minimum brackets that I need?? :confused:
:cheers:

A/C has 3: frt support, adjuster brace, rear mount

P/S has 2: cradle, adjuster (also serves as alt bracket)

Alt has mount brkt, 2 staps/braces, and previously mentioned p/s brkt

Also uses an Idler on the crank/water pump belt

Non-A/C P/S cars use different brkts.

I can email you a pic of the A/C P/S type, if needed.

a454corvette,

How about a picture for me too. I think I am missing a strap on my alternator.
