The AC compressor position should be the same for all LS engine when mounted down below. But I would use something like the Vintage air system to mount the small 503 compressor as it will work much better then the factory GM unit. Cycling vs Pressure AC system differences. With the fabricated design of the Speedtech unit it shouldn't be a problem.

I will be using a Sanden compressor and a VA or one of the three other low mount kits in conjunction with the GM modified LSA accessory drive kit. Basically a corvette set up on driver's side and LSA supercharger drive components on the passenger side. It uses three belts, one for supercharger, one for power steering and alternator and one for the AC.

I had saw a comment that Speedtech didn't lend itself to being notched as easily so that's the cause of my question.

Thanks for the input.

Dave
