Doing one right now, Ill post pics in the next few days. We had to trim the frame for compressor clearance and move the engine forward. This is using a complete Cadillac front acc drive.

Louie, what yr is the Caddy frt drive U R referring to ??

Chuck its the GM Caddi kit. In hind sight with the motor mounted forward , the 5067 kit may have worked better although its a tad wider at the AC bracket. I only say this because of the alternator vs steering box clearance.

I am planning on running this set up, shorter a/c lines and no need to cut the frame up or any need to lift engine to replace compressor. http://www.kwikperf.com/lsx_ac.html and they have a setup for truck, fbody or vette accessory set ups. I ran the truck setup that I modified in my 71 Nova with the edelbrock LS intake plan on doing same in the T-type if I yank the hot air setup in favor of turbo LS power.
