You may use the 302 brackets but they will need to be modified. You need to weld an ear to the main aluminum bracket. You also have to drill several holes in the aluminum bracket as well as the front steel plate.

There was a company years back that did the modification but I can't remember who it was.

You may check superchargersonline.com for mounting brackets also.

Alternative Auto still modifys brackets. Runs about $200, you send them your bracket.
