Default L98 Accessory braces and hooker headers

I need help with these braces for the L98 eninge in a 91 with the hooker headers. I know that out of the 7 braces
1- A/C to header
1 - Alt to header
1- A/C-tensioner bracket to fuel pump boss
4 - ?????

first did you guys just simply use the spacers (mine doesn't seem to match up). Secondly where do all the other braces go?

You can't use the rear AC and ALT braces even though they give you spacers. The only bad thing I have noticed is a little more vibration with the AC on.
