Fbody aftermarket accessory bracket advice I am putting an Ls7 in a 96 ss and was wondering if anyone new if the holley budget mid mount bracketry would fit under the hood. Build is N/A. So not worried about room for turbo piping. But I do have the BMR turbo k member if that makes a difference . Also I would be open to any other brands also that were close to the same price range. I have all accessories except the ac. My goal is to hook up the LT1 ac lines to the LS compressor.
but wasn't sure if this mid mount kit would complicate things. Open to any and all advice. Magnum F got here a couple days ago and 6 to 8 weeks until the Midwest Fab 9" gets here. This is all I have left and hoping to be done by the time the rearend gets here. This build has cost me a fortune.
But it will be the nicest car I've ever owned and I cannot wait. I'll stop rambling now. Thanks In advance for any help.

LoL. I meant just the bracket kit for ac and power steering/alternator. It's less than $400. Not the one with the integrated water pump. I should have been more specific. My bad. Yeah, I already have most of the accessories, so Im just looking for mounting options.

You mean stock? The holley brackets I was looking at pretty much look stock. I guess maybe I will hit up ebay and try to find some brackets. I am hoping that the Lt1 ac lines will reach wherever the compressor ends up. I know new lines probably aren't too much, but I figured if I got the mid mount, it would move the compressor a little closer to the lines. That's the only reason I was considering them.
