Why you should use a Kwik Performance product:
  • Properly engineered using OEM reference drawings

  • Backed by a no-hassle warranty and return policy
  • Tech support before, during and after the sale
Why relocate the AC compressor for an LT swap?
  • GM made a fantastic engine with the LT design, but they didn’t always put the accessories in the best location for us engine-swapping hotrodders.
    By locating the AC compressor just outside the passenger side cylinder head you solve the possible frame clearance issues with chassis such as:
    • Camaro
      • 1st Gen (1967-69)
      • 2nd Gen (1970-81)
      • 3rd Gen (1982-92)
    • Chevelle (and other A-body cars, 1964-77)
    • Malibu (and other G-Body cars, 1978-88)
    • Full size Chevy pickups (1955+)
    • S10 pickups and S10 Blazers (1982-2004)
Why use a genuine Sanden AC compressor?
  • Many OEM AC compressors are a “variable displacement” design and don’t work well with older OEM or aftermarket AC systems
  • The OEM compressors have a 4-groove pulley instead of the 6-groove needed when moving the compressor to a higher location
  • Sanden is the aftermarket standard for AC compressors, recommended by most major AC manufacturers
