Workhorse Brackets
Hello all, im finally converting my 454 p30 chassis to an 8.1! (454 locked up)
I have all of the 8.1 truck/silverado accessories and id like to convert to a workhorse accessory drive.
Im looking for GM 12558927 and W0003928
12558927 is for the A/C and power steering and w0003928 is for the alternator.
I do not need the actual accessories, just the brackets.
[Mod Edit]
Thanks everyone!

I'm curious what transmission you will be using.

Will the old 454 brackets not fit 8.1 ? Sure looks like they would.. you could try Visone rv salvage yards in ky.. I think I have spelling close..
Good luck and keep us posted

No, they dont work.
I tried a ton of workhorse partouts/rv partouts including visone and none of them have any.
I found an engine on ebay with the parts needed, asked him to purchase, so we’ll see if that leads anywhere.

I am not sure.. but just speaking out my butt.. but you pull and pay.. closest to you.. I thought I have seen GM/Chevy use similar brackets on suburban or maybe the k3500.. maybe a trip to car salvage yards and start looking under hoods.. best guess.. if I run into anything I will shout out.. but really the only time I find what I am looking for.. is when I don't need it.. sorry.. maybe someone will come along with better advice.. oh.. try reaching out to CODE2e .. here..
Good luck and keep us posted

Have done engine swaps on cars and trucks for decades, including EFI conversions and the like.
You are best off locating a Pick-n-Pull near you that has a 2001-2002 Suburban, Savanna, 2500 or 3500 truck with an 8.1L. The second alternative is looking for seller of a junk truck wit that engine.
I would grab everything you can, including belts, tensioners, brackets, wiring, sensors, etcetera. Better to have too much, verses not having the "one" part that stops the project.

Here's an excellent thread that within it discusses the "top" A/C compressor bracket used vs "bottom".
