a/c mount options for C5 accessories - Lateral-g Forums

gnx7 · #1 11-11-2013, 02:54 PM

I'm doing a turbo setup on my Chevelle and looking for an a/c mount that hugs the engine the closest in the passenger side valvecover location. I have C5 Vette accessories on the car.

What options are there?

This one seems to stick out really far? Is this really my only option?

I used the Holley bracket with my corvette brackets. I like it a lot. For the price, you can't beat it. I know Vintage Air sells a bracket that mounts it low pass side area but space might be an issue. Hope this helps you.

I think the kwik bracket and the holley bracket are about the same placement. The holley brackets look more oem and matches the corvette accessories.

I have had nothing but issues with kwik brackets. I have run the holley brackets and they work flawlessly.

I have the Holley bracket with the Vette alt/PS bracket. I have the bracket for the sanden compressor, not the R4 one. It fits good & looks stock, haven't ran it yet so I cannot comment on that side.

If you want an AC bracket that hugs the block, Holley bracket sticks out the same amount as the Kwik bracket that you have, so not much to gain by switching out to Holley bracket. Almost all of the brackets that tugs the compressor to the block are the billet kind (VA front runner for example).
