also should mention the P/S should be bled, coolant system bled, and a/c vacuumed and refilled to spec... this video would have been 2-3 hrs I get it... lol great job Clowny.... much respect

[@klowny1969]

Where did you get the mounting brackets for the alternator and compressor? They looked simple and clean. Thank you.

[@michaelwoods3850]

Klowny u r the man

[@klowny1969]

Thank you sir

[@mlbgonzalez]

Klowny! Thanks for doing this vid, I was not clear about the power steering pulley and the high pressure hose side and you helped alot! BTW when I first saw the Frontrunner on the cover of a SBC book I said stop the press! What is it and how do I get it? As you said it is a work of art for the SBC. Cheers!

[@pedrodominguez7501]

Where did you get the old setup bracket for the a/c compressor?? And what belt is that??

[@sam24k24]

Hey can i do this to a 4.3 6v in a Chevy Monte Carlo?

[@klowny1969]

Look on vintage airs website and see if they have anything for that engine..thanks for watching and don't forget to subscribe

[@sogbryan6633]

@klowny1969 So you had to buy all New Parts.. eg Alternator, power steering pump etc? So it wasn't possible to simply replace the V-belt pulley's with the serpentine pulley's?

[@kthreatt9271]

Where to get custom ac compressor assembly hose

[@downrange7715]

Did the kit come with a new ac compressor? Wondering if you just changed out the compressor pulley for serpentine set up?

[@davidcollis4758]

I am building a 383 for my '87 Chevy P/U. I will probably get this kit to convert it from the V belts. Good job on your install. I am a retired auto mechanic. Please don't use adjustable wrenches if you can help it. They will damage your beautiful parts. Thanks and take care.

[@klowny1969]

Thank you! You are right..sometimes they are just handy..

[@yahtsiepierre7034]

That’s exactly what I have (383) I was wondering could you send me the direct link to this setup and also what all comes in the kit Thanks in advance

[@d.ruesch9064]

At minute 5:00, I was like: "Ok, that's it. The car is done. No way I could mount all that back as it was again. I'll just take the bicycle from now on."

[@klowny1969]

Lol

[@larepublica524]

Can I do this on my 1988 Chevy p30 6.2 diesel engine

[@klowny1969]

Check their website

[@ariyanadumon4549]

That is super clean. That kit must be crazy expensive. Just wow, but damn it looks nice man.

[@klowny1969]

Thank you..it does cost some money lol

[@ariyanadumon4549]

@@klowny1969 I figured, it had everything man, that's nice. Super clean though. I ended up tracking down a set of 88-92 Firebird Serpentine Brackets and Pulleys. Came with hardware too. Painted them up Gold and they look beautiful. Granted, not quite that perfect lol.

GM Performance offers 2 kits with or without AC or U can source OEM components from a 4.3 5.7 7.4 from a yard less $ and not a generic kit that requires grinding bolt heads to complete installation. Y R U using RTV and gaskets ?
