Looking for 72 GS 455 Power Steering brackets. The PS bracket is part number 1238314 and is stamped 455-A 350 The cast aluminum, part number 1238313. Also cast 455-A 350 Thanks
Well I have the aluminum one # is 1386394,a metal one it says -P- 350-455 A- and another aluminum one that says only 455 BCE.Bruno.
This is from Georges site... "If you have a 72 GS 455 it probably came with an A.I.R. (Air Injector Reactor) system installed. Because of the A.I.R. pump your car would have a ram air cleaner with a triangle shaped inlet on the driver's side and different power steering brackets that allow mounting the A.I.R. pump. Like a lot of parts for our cars, the "A" body brackets are different than those from the full size "BCE" cars and do not always interchange. Below is the complete setup for our "A" body cars positioned the way it would be installed in the car. Power steering pump mounts in the lower position and A.I.R. pump in the upper position. Below is the A.I.R. pump adjusting arm and Power Steering adjusting bracket. A.I.R. arm does not have any stampings or numbers and can be identified by the mounting holes which are 5" center to center. The PS bracket is part number 1238314 and is stamped 455-A 350 Below is the PS pump and A.I.R. pump mount. For the "A" body it is cast aluminum, part number 1238313. Also cast 455-A 350" .
The aluminum one on the bottom is exactly the same as mine.The metal one its the same,but I guess the mounting area to make tight is little different.The other aluminum one is more complex,more like a later model,maybe California?.Bruno.
Bruno, this what I found for the 1386394. It is Not correct for 72. "1967-69 Buick Electra Riviera Wildcat 430ci Steering bracket 1386394" .
Nelson,that's the other one that I have of the 2 aluminum brackets.This one is in a better condition then the other.Bruno.
Hi Nelson,the metal one I have its must likely the other one that you need.I guess I have to clean it some to see if the # are there,as it has 350-455 on it that I can see.Will let you know,Bruno.
