Wide Mount - AC - Camaro - K10156
Here's a Kwik and easy solution to your LSx engine swap AC compressor problems.
- You may have clearance issues with the frame or crossmember. That's especially true for chassis such as S-10s, early Camaros and Chevelles, and many full size Chevy pickups.
- You may be concerned about the LSx "variable displacement" compressor being compatible with your earlier factory AC system or with an aftermarket system.
Here's how to solve those problems:
- Use an aftermarket compressor like the popular Sanden.
- Mount it with a bracket kit from Kwik Performance, Inc., available in three different versions: Corvette, Camaro/Firebird/GTO, and truck/SUV.
Features and benefits
- Stresses and vibrations evaluated with Finite Element Analysis and prototype testing.
- Tensioner placed in its proper position - between the air conditioner compressor and the crankshaft pulley, in the “slack” portion of the belt.
- Belt and tensioner geometry optimized for proper belt tension - equivalent to OEM tension requirements.
- All pulleys aligned with each other within SAE specifications.
- Zinc plated fasteners used throughout for corrosion resistance and great appearance.
- All brackets made from 6061-T6 aluminum for light weight, good looks, and rust-free appearance. Matches the all-aluminum LSx engines.
- All plates are cut on a computer-controlled, ultra-high pressure water jet.
- All tensioners, pulleys, belts, compressors, alternators, etc. are standard, easily available items.
- Uses Sanden 709 compressor.
What's included:
- Front and rear compressor attachment plates.
- Water pump brace place.
- Spacer tubes
- Idler pulley mount.
- All fasteners needed to attach the brackets to the engine, and the compressor to the brackets.
- Smooth pulley for use on the tensioner.
What else is required to complete the installation:
- LS main belt tensioner with 6 groove pulley. (The pulley will be removed and used as the idler pulley.)
- Six-rib belt, length such that the tensioner indicator arrow is between the max and min marks.
- A Sanden 709 air conditioner compressor.
