Default Fox front accessories

Will truck or Corvette stuff work for a Fox body? Battery relocation is an option. I'm looking to fit all front accessories, PS, Alt, and water pump of course, if AC is even doable with Ford wiring and switches.

People seem to think f-body stuff is made of gold and it's hard to find or outrageously priced.

I am using truck stuff, but I relocated the alt to the passenger side. Take a look at my photobucket.

I have read the a/c from the truck is doable, but the front sway bar is in the way. Some have said the later Mustang sway bar might be an option. My engine is not in the car yet. I will see about the a/c at that time.

I asked about using the Ford a/c stuff with the gm compressor...the answer was yes.

I'm not doing a fox swap now, but I'd like to get started this year.

Mu understanding is the lower a/c compressor location interferes with the sway bar.
To me this is the ideal location to.
