I'm a new member that is beginning a 5.3 (2005 silverado)/ 4l60e swap into an 88 monte. I've done a lot of reading in the forum's and boy what a big help!!! Thanks to all that have put up information. I will add to it as I progress:
Question: I want to relocate the a/c compressor (bottom to top mount) and want to buy a kit. I want to use the Denso compressor that came with the motor. I see a lot of info for the sanden compressor but not the Denso. Does a kit exist? Does e-one suggest I not use the Denso and buy a sanden? If a kit exists, where can I get it?
Thanks, Jim

Contact kwik performance, I just bought a kit it's 199, u should definately switch to a sanden 508 compressor, anything compresser "508 style" will work sanden brand is more expensive. The sell a copycat on in eBay

There was a kit for f body spacing, but not for truck accessory spacing.
Check with Twin Turbo, he might have found something.

Why can't you run the stock Denso A/C compressor with the stock bracket?

I haven't test fit the engine yet, so I'll leave the stock set-up there when I do. I was assuming, from what I've read on the site, that it had to be relocated in the g-boby cars.

I think dirty dingo might have a bracket now, and if so I'd do that over the kwik in a heartbeat. Would this work? http://dirtydingo.com/store/product_...oducts_id=1378

You can use the original compressor and a 4.3 S-10 bracket. See my post on 85 cutlass.

You are using the original Cutlass A/C compressor. I wanted to use the Denso Compressor that comes with the truck motor. Is there a reason why you didn't use it?

Check out Alan Grove Components. They have low-mount A/C bracket systems for F-body and truck belt spacing. I think they use Sanden 508 compressors though - not a stock compressor, but they seem to have a good reputation.

You do not want to use the stock compressor it is a different type of compressor that will lunch itself if used on an older system the two are not really compatiable. The sanden is your best bet.

I thought I read that it is not compatible, I will get the sanden set-up, thanks again!!
