Denso AC compressor adapters Does anyone know where I can source a set of AC adapters for a denso truck compressor? Nostalgic air parts lists them in their catalog but when I called them they said they were out of stock and demand was through the roof and practically laughed at me (so if someone from NAP sees this 
).

Try getting them off of a donar truck at a salvage yard. Then you can cut them and have ends welded on by someone with a tig welder. Im using the same compressor and I was able to get 1 end from doc blocks about a year ago, they only had 1 of them availabe at the time. If I was to do it over I would just scavenge them off a truck and modify to fit.

I didn't ask who they sell them to, not a bad idea.
Pulling and modifying blocks from a donor truck isn't a bad idea, I had thought of doing that. I'll keep it a consideration.
Yeah, when I called Nostalgic Air Parts they said if they had any in stock they would already be gone. Apparently a very popular part for them, I know a large number of S10 guys use the same compressor. There's one place that has both adapters but they want like $130 shipped for two of them (one is only like $20 and the other is like $95 apparently). What sort of details do you need?

Certainly could be a good start, I made a discovery though!!!!

PN 451-1105 and PN 451-1106 are for the denso 10S20F and 10S17F which is the compressor style I have shown below...
They also have the seals to seal them to the compressor and packs of o-rings that I need to replace. Going to be calling them tomorrow morning to see if they have them in stock and can sell them to me or know where I can order from. Will report back with my findings.

Sometimes you just gotta call! I agree it is much easier though if they have prices on their website and you can just order online. Art; Not sure if it will mount to an fbody bracket.
I called AP air, and it's a home run! Parts were pretty cheap too, $22 for one block and $16 for the other plus $4 for the two seals that go between the adapters and the compressor. part numbers!
451-1106 (Denso 10S20F/10S17F to #10 adapter block)
440-823 (Seal for ^ block)
451-1105 (Denso 10S20F/10S17F to #8 adapter block)
440-822 (Seal for ^ block)
They also have 10 pack's of AC o-rings for pretty cheap as well, $3 a pack. Good idea to go ahead and replace all the o-rings on your AC lines while you have the system apart, it's a high pressure system and in my trucks case the original ones were 11 years old. And o-rings are cheap, I went ahead and ordered a pack of #8,10 and 12 o-rings. I'll be sure to post pictures of everything when it all comes in and my final product.

Parts showed up...like last week actually but I wasn't able to make it home from school last weekend. Everything looks good, ran me $58 shipped for everything, no verification on fitment yet as my truck is still getting the exhaust bent up for it...
