This one is pretty basic, but I forgot where the supports for the original spark plug wires go. The two on the sides of the block are pretty basic, but the other two, at the rear, I can't remember. I found a set of NOS wires, with the supports and rubbers, BUT managed to forget the exact place to screw them...
Does anybody has a picture?
And please, don't laugh, ok?

These are mounted in the same places. Relative to the picture, the right side is mounted next to the distributor at the very last hole of the intake flange. The left mounts to a thread in the block. It's farthest to the left on the top of the block.

Thanks a lot guys!!!! I was looking for a Motorcraft set of plug wires, complete with supports to instal, and now I found!! Around here there are some aftermarket wires, but they are cheap chinese stuff. All good repro stuff are for the 302 Windsor. The only quality stuff for Y-blocks is the silicone kind wires, in all colors but black. I was using a set of yellow wires, and with way too much beer on my head, I did this:  Ok, ok, bad moove. The worse thing is that I also managed to lose my old, but original set of wires, that was complete, with the supports, when my engine was at the machine shop being boored.

That bracket is factory original. Came on '69 to '75 Galaxies with the 292.   The only mod I did, was to ad a plate to adapt it to the Sanden compressor. The original was a York. I can look for one, if you are interested, or I can take some measurements, and draw a CAD blueprint.

Two questions- What are the chances of finding the brackets? Don't need compressor. And what do you think shipping to me would be?

Do you think your Ford dealer can come up with the part numbers for the parts? Than I could try my Ford dealer. Thanks

Well, this things are not easy to find, but I already sent some emails to several parts guys I know (don't worry, just asked for the part, and price).
Shipping will be quite high, due to the weight. I'm thinking about 50 Dollars, that's about 88 Reais (1,00 Dollar = 1,75 Real) for the Brazilian equivalent to Priority mail.
The part numbers:
BC7A-19B694-A - Complete bracket kit (no compressor, or any other accessories)
BC7A-19B968-B - Semi-Complete kit (includes compressor and all brackets)
BD3A-19B968-A - Complete Bracket kit (includes compressor, evaporator, condenser, dryer filte, all hoses, belts, wiring, and even the hole saw to the firewall)
With this part numbers you could buy the whoke kit, or just the supports. Warning, those are Brazilian part numbers. I don't know if the U.S.A. part numbers would be the same.
If you couldn't find a kit the way you want anywhere, I'm pretty sure I can find a nice used bracket (a NOS bracket is almost impossible). You will only need to ad a new bearing to the tensioner, and some paint/chrome, and you a ready to go.
