Hello,
Trying to finish assemble my 60 390 and it has been a long time. AC GEN and PS. It looks like the pass. side Head bolts  all go in flush to the head.
The drivers side looks to have 1 or 2 or ?? Head bolts that incorporate PS rear mount or other brackets. Is this correct?
If any one knows which Head bolts are double duty (also bracket bolts)  and figure out a way to explain the location I would be thankful.

Here are a couple of pictures off my 60. On the passenger side the lower part of the AC bracket bolts to the 2nd head bolt back from the front. The top part bolts onto one of the intake manifold bolts. The PS bracket bolts onto the rear headbolt on the center boss for the exhaust manifold. That one should be the longest of hem all. I'm assuming you have the original bolts.

The secound one back on the pass side bottom has A/C bracket under it. The fifth one back on drivers side bottom has the power steering bracket under it. Hope this helps. If you need more info I have it, also parts. Ken Perry

Been there done that. Long gone are the days I can remember where everything goes after any length of time let alone 5 minutes. LOL. That's why I ways take pictures and Bag Stuff in marked plastic sandwich bags as I go. Even draw pictures for clarity and take pictures of that as I go. Have an old lap top on my work bench that has all the digital pictures and it sure is helpful when putting it all back together
