Default 1 to 10 rating on the install of Vintage Air on a non-a/c 70 Camaro

I am looking at a really nice clean 70 Camaro that is an original non-a/c car from the factory and I was wondering on a scale of 1 to 10 (10 being the hardest) how hard the install is? I am very mechanically inclined but I was just wondering how the fit & finish is and all that good stuff? I will be changing out the top pad so I can install the correct center vent. I want it to look right. I'm also wondering if there's a kit to move the a/c compressor over to the right side of the motor? I can't spend a fortune on one of those billet front drive systems right now. I might be able to do that later, but I'm just trying to do this on a tight budget. Thanks guys.

As for the install, it is a 20 hour job and requires only standard hand tools. The system for your 70 includes a new factory replacment controller. The hose all connect to the factory Astro vents and a new center vent is included.

For compressor mounting, We could set you up with the SD7 compressor in the kit at no extra charge, and then you could do the inexpensive March Mid Mount Kit which would give you a serpentine set up including all the pulleys and brackets and would put the compressor on the lower pass side of the engine. The entire bracket and pulley kit is only $700 and since your getting the compressor in the kit anyway, it is the perfect time.

Here is a link to the front drive
