Default A/C Compressor bracket mounting..

I'm trying to figure out how to properly mount my a/c compressor bracket, can't seem to get it flush. Does anyone have an under the hood shot showing a mounted compressor? I've never seen one in person so a picture would be worth a thousand words here.. Baiscally I need an under the hood shot of an 86 L98...Thanks!

hm... my wifes 87 had washers shimming it up. The key is making sure the compressor aligns to the waterpump correctly.

be careful with that bracket... the POS is made of pig metal, and is real prone to breaking. total junk, if you ask me.
