All threaded holes in the block and cylinder head should cleaned and tapped with a thread chaser. All bolts being installed should be lubed with a light oil or anti-seize on the bolt threads before assembly.

This bracket is designed to be used with 1990-95 Chevrolet 1/2 ton truck 350 power steering pump. If you have an LS truck power steering pump P-series, all you need is the different reservoir.
