    Once I get to that part of the build on my Red GT I'm more than likely going to go with a later model serpentine system with the smaller compressor to clean everything up and be easier to find parts for if something breaks on the road.

    One thing I totally agree with more and more as I get older is here in the Southern States Air Conditioning is NOT an option!!!

    I notice the hoses going over the windshield. I was kinda hoping you had placed them somewhere else by now.

    I guess with all that fresh air blowing on them, they actually get cooled better...:p

    Mount it really low. The compressor is under the alternator, although this pictures doesn't show it.

    Of course you'll need a March pulley kit and will have to rebuild all the hoses to do it this way...:)
