64 cutlass swap, ac question Hello all,
I'm gearing up for a 6.0 swap in my 64 cutlass, I have everything lined out except for the ac, my car is a factory ac car and would like to retain the look and function.
I'm using dirty dingo upper ac and alt mounts so the compressor is in the same postion as mine but I need a serpentine pulley compressor not a vbelt like what mine has currently.
What are my options?
Can I swap pulleys from a 88+ r4 to my current one?
Swap to a 88+ compressor(if so where do I get appropriate lines?)
Any help would be appreciated.

I used the truck AC compressor, and adapted truck hard lines from the compressor to the OE flex lines. I also tried the OE POA with limited success. I have since changed to a switch in the orifice tube, much better. You can use the 6.0 AC bracket depending on how far back you set the engine. I can supply pictures if it will help.
