Les,

In my earlier reply I forgot to mention that there's no need to invent a
mount for the Sanden-type compressor. Those with 4 pairs of mounting ears
will bolt to the A-6 front mounting plate on the Olds engine with only minor
elongation of the 4 holes in the plate -- and perhaps other minor grinding.
It's a VERY easy mod and provides plenty of stability without the big cast
iron appendages. I did put a brace at the rear from the compressor to a
double-ended head bolt, but that's belt'n'suspenders stuff, probably.

Ken H.
