Picture of 215 accessory locations? (Front view preferred)

Hello,

I am looking for pictures of the front of 215 engines. I have swapped an Olds 215 into a '75 Olds Starfire and am trying to find information on which stock accessories I can fit in the engine bay. Since I don't have any brackets or accessories (p/s, a/c, etc...) a picture of an engine with accessories out of the engine bay would be a great help. This way I can decide which I can make work. Setups both with and without a/c and/or p/s are needed.

BTW, of the thousands of 215 pictures on the internet it was very rare to find one with any brackets on the front of the engine.

Thanks in advance.

Did Buick and Olds use common brackets? If so, this article might help... it includes three views of the generator side and one picture of the power steering pump & a/c compressor side: [www.britishv8.org]

Clan, D & D seeemed to have good compilation of accessories/ pictures. You can peep all the 215/Rover conversions,in this forum, which pretty much shows the gamut, of engine-newity. Ditching the generator and cast iron starter, is a good thing. Cheers, roverman.
