I have everything off of the intake manifold except for one bolt, which is directly under the air conditioning mounting bracket. The bracket extends down to and includes the power steering pump. To remove, or at least loosen up the A/C bracket, it looks like I have to remove the power steering pully, to gain access to three bolts that appear to mount into the engine.
Is there another way to get that bracket away from that forward bolt on the intake manifold? Are there any other bolts that hold the AC in place toher than the ones in the front of the bracket?
thanks

You need to remove the bracket. And, if I remember correctly, the bolts you mentioned should be the only ones.
