  1. Here's a mock-up pic of the bracket I posted above.
    It is quite high.

    There isn't any mounting it on the right side unless you mount it up high because the inlet for the waterpump is in the way.
    I've used these late 60's smog pump brackets to mount alternators on sbc before but unless you figure out an idler you can't get a lot of tension on the belt but it might be a start on a mounting point. 67 68 SMOG PUMP BRACKET.jpg

    Cut up a stock L/H bracket and put it back together as a R/H bracket.
    or
    Reverse an Alan Grove L/H bracket for use on the R/H side.
    or
    Make your own R/H bracket using Grove's as a guide.

    Probably have to relocate the return connection on the reservoir; but not tough to do.

    Start looking at CircleTrack Suppliers websites. Summit, Jegs, etc sell them if you know the part number. Speedway has a complete book and section when you open their site. My son must have 10 catalogs.
    Most guys look at the “Hot Rod” after market and they miss the boat where thousands of usable parts are that are practical and may not be “pretty”. Transmission yokes are the biggest part that comes to mind.
    As a point 50’s Cadillac, Buick, and Oldsmobiles had their pumps on top of their engines. The fluid doesn’t know or care.
    Good luck with your project.
