Saginaw P/S Pump bracket for 351W

[Jambi]

On my 302 I was running a Saginaw style, dual return P/S pump with the use of the WH Explorer 5.0 Saginaw/Delphi P/S pump bracket kit, but now that I am going to be putting a 351W in soon, this bracket kit does not look like it's going to work. Wondering if anyone has a solution or fabbed a bracket to use a Saginaw dual return P/S pump with Explorer serp on a 351W.

Not sure with the explorer serp conversion but usually it just takes a cheap adapter that moves the bolt hole on the head.

a member here (i forget who) was making and selling 351 adapter plates some time ago. if you have the 5.0 in hand, you could use that as a guide and make something similar for the 351. i ordered the 5.0 kit from WH and the 351 plate separately. seeing them side by side they are pretty similar.

casadejohnson was the person on here selling the bracket. I am running it. I used edelbrock heads and had to enlarge a hole slightly to get it to line up, but otherwise it was the perfect part for the job.

Bracket

I bought my bracket for a 351 from BC Broncos.

I am running 2 of these brackets with a Saginaw pump without AC. Bracket bolts to the head so it will work on either engine, I just needed a longer belt on the 351W. Absolutely no issues on either one, both just spent a week in Hot Springs and worked great running on trails and on the highway thru town.
