Stock AC compressor brackets

[Mheiron]

For reference, I’ve attached these photos for a reference to anyone installing an OEM AC system.

The AC system for the car was in the trunk when I purchase it.

I had a lot of trouble figuring this out with few references around.

The needed fan belt lengths are included.

Anyway one step closer to having a cooler car!

Its also worth noting that the AC clutch assembly needs removal to mount or dismount the compressor. Or ar least it’s much easier!

Is alternator on same belt with WP 36"? Just adding ac to my originally non AC 65 staying with only 2 belts on crank, one PS & WP and second Alt & AC I like the way your going with 3 groove crank pulley and having 3 belts. Saw some other non AC car did it this way so was easily set up and I'm going heavy duty belt on AC as only using the one groove/belt. jk

The crank pulley is 4 groove with a slightly asymmetric bolt pattern. The back 2 grooves run the Alternator and AC compressor. The water pump pulley is two groove And runs off the 2nd groove back. the WP pulley runs with the idler Which tensions the belt. The front groove on the crank pulley runs the. PS pump via the front groove of the WP pulley.

Hope something here is helpful. I’ve enjoyed figuring it out and thought I’d share with the next guy.

From the Service Manual. Ive installed a two groove pulley on the WP and the PS belt runs over it (different from the manual).

The two groove water pump pulley doesn’t work. It’s a single groove. I finally got it back together
