P/S bracket issue..Ahh help

[72Satellite440]

Hey guys, posted this on another site and no luck, thought id try asking here.
Ok so ive got about a 69 440-block ,an Alum Mopar housing and I bought a p/s pump with brackets from ebay and they dont line up....The brackets seem to be too wide for the housing (see pic below) and definitly doesnt line up the belts. I just figure it must need a diff config of brackets ...Any suggestions would help a ton.thx

72Sat, thanks for the help on the cooling system.

I will take a picture of mine tonight and post it for you - the bracket does not seem correct. I do not have that problem.

Most 1969-down models (non-AC cars) - Big Block & Hemi
for TRW/Thompson style Federal style pumps w/ large notch (illustration A below) [not for original style Federal pumps; see illustration below to define which type you have] (must have 1-3/4" body to pulley distance for these brackets to work

After looking your pic's over better I see you have a drivers side lower hose,that housing is different My "C" body 440 has that style..Most drop down on the passengers side....That might be the problem you need brackets from a "C" body 440.....My "B" body 440 has the lower passengers side hose and so do both of my buds "B" body 440's......And or....Your brackets might be for an A/C set up,if so your missing 2 brackets that might take up the open space you have.

72 Sat, looks like the rear bracket on your PS pump is angled and pushing it too far forward towards the radiator
