Personally, I think you'd be better off to just replace the stock compressor. By the time you make a piston work, mount it, buy a pressure switch and other related parts to make it work, and cobble up a mount, $275 doesn't look too bad. Also, how are you planning on running the clutch? I'd think...
I can answer the first question. He's talking about a York AC compressor. A lot of people are modifying them into air compressors to use for on-board air on a vehicle.
