installing sanden508 compressor and shaker on 70 e body,i got brackets from BPE...anyone have pics? would like to see how a/c lines were run and which way compressor is clocked and or any tips on installation,,,thanks

No real tips, it all bolted on with no trouble. Just ran the rubber hoses over the core support, not the prettest but works.
Actually I don't have pictures of it finished, I don't think. I have to look and take some more pictures. I finished the car about three years ago and the AC work excellant.

thanks for pic getting ready to do a shaker conversion,,,what freon did u use? im using oe hoses with metal lines that ill get the fittings (with connections for a/c gauges) put on to make it hook up sanden compressor....looks like suction should be straight and the discharge needs to be a 45 or 90 to go to the drivers side...just wanted to see how others have run a/c hoses and clocked compressor....like the color combo on your 71....

So how is BPE fastening the back of the compressor with their kits ???

gonna have to find some 45 degree fittings with ports since compressor doesnt have shrader valves on back to put in freon...looks like might even need to bend them cuz suction side is real close to front carb of six pak...anyone have more pics of a/c fittings with sixpak?

heres a link to pic of rear bracket driver....http://bouchillonperformance.com/images/4700_3small.jpg

You can always get the kit to mount it under the alternator.

I'll take more photos but won't be until next week, sorry.

I put fill fittings on my condensor and on the compressor. I can attach my hoses either place.

Interesting how each company comes up with their own mounting brackets... ...Anyhow...I used the Classic Auto Air bracket a few years ago and it fit under the shaker nicely...Here's a few trouble spots I ran into...As you're finding out the shaker is alot harder to plumb...Take a look at some of the solutions I came up with... ....Inline ports, and everything on one side instead of strung out across the engine bay...I also fabbed up a guard to make sure nothing contacted the shaker adapter ring...Fits right under there nicely...

I'm putting in the Bouchillon set up on my hemi right now. Fits great so far, motor still out. I mounted the dryer to the condensor, and used 3/4" aluminum square stock to shim it out from the condensor. Looks like how they do it on modern/foreign cars, both are in front of the core support, and out of the engine bay. Clean look-

here is one

looks good screamer if i was using after market condensor id go that route,,,but im using bone stock a/c set up so discharge line is on drivers side...im still waitin for a/c 45 degree fittings to come in,,,im kinda mockin up shaker and it doesnt sit flat,,, its leanin down on alittle drivers side,,, did u have to bend the carb plate ,,,or r u using the feet ,,,and if so how do they mount,anybody?,,,,thanks in advance
