In scanning eBay for big block power steering pump brackets, I noted a cutoff in availability at 1969 and up.
Owning a 1968 383 motor, I'd like to understand the difference. Can one go to a different water pump housing and fix it or is one of those B versus RB differences to which I must adapt?

Re: Pre 1969 Big Block Power Steering Pump Mounting
Might be due to location of lower rad hose
