Hi,
Has anyone installed the Nostalgic Air A/C compressor brackets along with a 6.5 turbo swap? I have parts from a 6.5 TD in storage to install in the future, but they are out of state so I can't measure anything. I am in the middle of an A/C swap and am trying to decide between the Nostalgic Air bracket kit which locates the compressor on the passenger side below the 24v alternator, and a custom bracket setup that will locate it below the driver side alternator.
I am worried if I do the Nostalgic Air kit then the compressor might interfere with the turbo and/or downpipe. The custom bracket on the driver side will definitely work, but it will be a lot of effort and will probably require me to reroute the hard lines to the brake master cylinder.
Has anyone successfully done an AC install on a truck with a turbo and both alternators? If so, where did you mount the compressor? Most threads I have found start off with a 12v conversion, which I am not interested in.
