Default R4 AC compressor mount

Does anyone know of a bracket that i can use to bolt an R4 AC compressor to an LS1 (2002GTO engine)? I'll have to get a serpentine drive compressor but I don't feel like swapping to something that would bolt on because of the AC lines. It's on an 82 vette and the AC lines are a PITA to remove & install.

There was a guy over at C3 corvette forum, in the LS swap sticky that was making a bracket. There were even dimensions and a diagram if you want to make your own.

Might have been. I used the diagrams head bolt pattern to make my Sanden compressor bracket on the LQ9 in my 68 corvette.

It is Josh Powers. I can vouch for his product, it is top notch. I have one on my LS1 M3, engine is a 2004 Pontiac GTO/ accessory drive is same spacing as Fbody.

Nope, kinda gave up on brackets when the Kwik brackets came out.
