That looks like the Kwik Performance bracket. Holley is a better bracket. Sanden 508 is probably the compressor you want.

I like the Holley stuff, and was actually planning to go with their A/C bracket setup, along side the GM accy drive. One of the main reasons I was considering the GM accy was in case I was on the road and needed a replacement part. Do you think I would still be able to use a GM replacement part, even if it was temporary?

Yeah, I was wondering who made this bracket as it's not listed on Pace's website. I definately don't want the Kwik performance setup as I've heard people have had issues with it and that the Holley was a much better piece. I don't know anything regarding compressors, so I wasn't sure if the Sanden 508 was what I should be looking for.

thanks for the help!

Use the GMPP setup you have listed from Pace Performance. For the AC, use the Holley bracket, much better piece and no alignment issues (unlike the Kwik one). I bought a used C5 accy setup and used the Holley AC stuff. For the money, the kit from Pace is hard to beat. Holley has a complete kit but uses the alternator form a truck (and it is more expensive). Everything looks like it was made to go together.

Okay so I went ahead and ordered the accessory drive kit from Pace performance. I'm looking at ordering the Holley AC bracket and compressor (508) with serpentine pulley from Jegs with some of the other Holley swap parts. It says you will need an application specific "spacer" installation kit to align with the accessory pulleys. Are most of you using this one for the corvette (if using the CPP c5/c6 accy drive)?

My motor isn't here yet so I can't measure the crank pulley. Also, does anyone have the part number for the serpentine belt w/AC?

thanks, jake
