Anyone have any pictures? I've seen lots of LS cars with AC and lots of G-bodies with turbo LS's but usually it's one or the other... Already committing to AC but would like to go faster down the road

We did it with stock manifolds and truck acc. on a grand national, I'll try to find some pics, it was a pain but is doable. Power steering, a/c, everything.

. Were those stock truck manifolds or f-body?

I`m putting together a 5.3 4l80e turbo monte SS with A/C and power steering, but I could not get any manifolds to fit, they all hit the heater box. I had to build manifolds out of schedule 10 stainless. Everything is really tight when you try to cram the 5.3l with turbo, A/C, cruise, intercooler, and everything else in there. I will try to remember to snap some pics tomorrow.

I remembered to snap a couple pics when I was out in the garage this morning. Not much to look at yet, but at least I finally finished up with the trans cooler and engine oil cooler plumbing. I still have to finish the oil lines for the turbo.

I cut & reboxed my frame behind idler arm for factory ac to fit, also small notch in crossmember.Compressor in pic is sanden 508 with brp mount kit, which has more clearance than factory compressor did.

Does anyone know where you can find the fittings for the Denso truck compressors?

Bump for updates.. About to get started on a GT45 in my Monte and gotta keep AC.

Here's a pic of mine. The stock truck compressor bolted up nicely. I didn't have the AC lines connected yet.

That's odd.. There's no way the stock compressor will bolt up on mine. I had to buy a Holley bracket that bolts the the passenger head. Any pics of the area where your AC compressor is mounted? Assuming stock truck bracket also?

Mine was the smaller truck compressor with the stock truck bracket.

I'll post a couple of pics a friend's GN with a 5.3L / ON3 76mm combo. His also has the truck compressor and bracket.

NICE! If I could get that working rather than this holley/sanden mount, it would clear up a ton of room! Any info on that pump or what it came off of?

Looks like that is a Denso 10S17 with a chopped stock bracket. I wish I would've known about this before ordering the Holley bracket as the Holley bracket puts the compressor up and high on the passenger side right where the turbo down pipe should go.

Need to find out what these came on so we can find them in the junk yard. Already have the bracket.
