Default Qwik Performance Mini Compressor Low Mount - Vette Spacing (works for LSA)

So I am in the process of building my 72 (or more accurately at this stage it's at Sled Alley getting finished) with an LS motor I built. It's an L92 long block w/ a BTR stage 3 cam and LSA supercharger. Finding a solution for AC (a late add) had been quite fun. Options were to go aftermarket whole FEAD (Concept 1, Street & Performance), or....use stock FEAD (the altered one with high alternator) for LSA and figure out a compressor solution. Seeing as I had already bought the GM stuff and the better performing aftermarket stuff cost $2k more (and the worse of them had terrible reviews) I wanted to find something else.

I called Kwik to see if they had any ideas a few months ago and they happened to be working on a low mount for a mini-compressor. This would allow me to run GM FEAD and still hopefully fit. I got the bracket in (still a proto) I believe, and combined w/ the Sanden Mini-Compressor allowed me to run a low mount compressor with a small scallop in k-member and adjusting the holley mounts back. I believe on some cars it'd fit with neither.

Knowing how many people have LSA supercharger projects in the works this could help some others out I hope...
