UPDATE:
I bought the Vintage Air 961245 (561245) "Gen 5" system for my non-AC 69 Camaro. Have the evaporator in hand now and it appears the general shape, size, and mounting locations are the same as the Gen IV evaporator.
However, Vintage Air told me they didn't think the DSE mounting bracket would work with the Gen 5. I also called DSE and they didn't know if the bracket would work with the Gen 5 and said they didn't have any plans to verify or update it at this time.
I don't feel like wasting $200 to buy the DSE bracket to see if it'll work so I will attempt to mount the Gen 5 evaporator by welding studs on the interior firewall to mount the new Gen 5 mounting bracket and still have a smooth firewall.
A side note, the Gen 5 system is MUCH MUCH nicer and more refined than the previous Gen IV system. The blower motor is also 20% more powerful.
