ALright, what I have is a 82 K30, it originally had a 454 in it, removed by the PO. I dropped in a small block out of my 83 Blazer. What I need is pictures of the brackets for a small block to bolt up the power steering pump. I currently have the original pump and resevoir from the 454,along with all the lines from the Big Block. I don't want to "Jerry-Rig" this together. I know there had to be small-blocks with hydro-boost. Thanks ahead of time.

The p/s brackets are the same, regardless of hydroboost or not. Get a set of normal SBC power steering pump brackets, and you're done.

I just experienced this very same thing. your pump with hydro boost is both wider and thicker than a normal PS pump as well has two return lines, one on the back and one on the side. I still have not found the right brackets to mount mine. I cut a standard pump bracket in half and bolted each side on individually, used a bolt as a spacer for the top mount to sit out far enough. It seems to work for now.

Simple solution.Change to a serp belt.
Pics of a factory small block hydro boost set-up. If you need more, or specific detail let me know.
This is what I snapped so far though.
