does a 1990 have addition a/c braces????
I'm curious, does a 1990 have additional braces going to the a/c bracket from the exhaust manifolds? If they do can someone post a detailed picture of them? Also does the alternator & smog pump have4 anything like this?
I want to get my a/c going again but not sure if the car ever had these types of braces.

And later I had the brace modified to fit with the CS-144 alt, because the attachement is different, but this pic is a bit clearer than the one above:

thanks yorcci & rodj ....... seems my car is missing all of them, if I can't find the originals I will probably have to fabricate some. yet another setback LOL. Maybe I can buy some from other GM makes and modify them to work or something.
