I was wondering if a Sanden compressor would fit a small block with a pre-78 intake manifold. I'm looking at getting the brackets off of an 80s m-body and doing the swap on my 78 Fury. The problem is, Im running a dual plane Magnum M1 and it uses the older large thermostat housing. I don't want to change the manifold. Although the Sanden compressors are pretty ugly, id like to use one simply because they're probably quite a bit more efficient than the old RV2.
