Wasn't there someone on here offering a Sanden compressor bracket for the slant six a while back?

79/80 F Bodies and any MJ Bodies with a slant and AC uses a bracket that uses the Sanden style compressor. I bought a setup from Whitepunkonnitto when I was going to use a slant in my 65. I fitted a junk Sanden compressor and it fit just fine.
rob, i made a bracket for a sanden out of a 74 slant 6 rv2 set up. if you search for my thread, classic air, i have some pictures of it. it may help out. if i can help ya, just let me know. dave.
i took the front brackets and idler set up from a 74 rv2 set up. laid the sanden in the right position and drilled new holes for the pump. then just made a brace out of flat stock for the rear of the pump. it works good with the original slant engine pulley. wish i hadn't let it go with the engine, i would of boxed the whole thing up and sent it to ya. i did keep the sanden pump, and its yours if it helps ya. just take care of the shipping.

I haven't seen anyone leverage RV2 brackets. Since my 64 Valiant doesn't have power steering, I used that mounting pad for custom Sanden brackets. I started w/ universal ones and had to cut and weld. I also have Sanden brackets from a ~77 Volare which would also give me a Saginaw p.s. pump if I change to that later. Clearance is only ~1" to the battery. Likely more in a wider 1967+ car. But, narrower batteries are becoming common and cheap and may become even small Li ones soon.

I believe Bouchillon performance sells a bracket. I know they do for small and big blocks as well as poly motors.
