Default Can not find correct brackets; (alt, ps and ac. LWP, reverse rotation, serpentine dr)

Greetings, I have been searching high and low for a set of aftermarket brackets here is the description;
mid 90's (C1500) 350 SBC, Vortec Heads, Serpentine drive belt, LWP, Reverse rotation, Drivers side upper alternator, Drivers side lower PS pump and passenger side upper A/C.
For some reason there is no aftermarket setup for these truck type setups and it's hard for me to believe that folks aren't modifying these engines. I bought a set of Allen somethings that said they would fit but the alternator bracket was too wide, the A/C comp didn't mount right and the power steering pump was totally the wrong mount.
I don't mind moving the locations around but, I do need some guidance with the parts. I would have purchased one of the kits they are selling and mount them in there locations but I can't be sure they will work with my reverse rotation LWP and the price is high and they want you to buy their components; A/C comp, Alt, and water pump, and they're all gaudy chrome or powder coated. I am looking for a clean stock style with out the GM stock Large alum brackets.
Please help any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
Long Live Chevy! Jim

Good luck, I came to these forums looking for the same thing, but I didn't want to ask without first searching. I have a 1994 chevy Stepside with the 4.3 (262). They stopped making the stock bracket part #10233233 in 2007. I've been looking for something aftermarket with no luck. I plan on doing a swap in the future, but I just want to get the truck on the road for now. Good luck, if you hear anything please let me know, I'll do the same.
