Picture 426 Hemi with A/C
« on: September 01, 2014 - 09:26:51 PM »
Somebody posted a picture a while back of a 426 Hemi with the A/C compressor mounted below the alternator and listed the name of the company that made the brackets.....

For the life of me...I can not find that picture :crying:

Anybody help :1zhelp:

I think the whole point of that design is making the engine look stock to a casual observer... Serpentine drive would be an immediate give away... FWIW I know a man running the system on his Hemi Challenger & you've gotta look to see it & he sez it works great...

You can run serpentine belts with all the stocks brackets as wel like this 383 I just did. You have to look twice to notice as well.

I wonder if I could use these Bouchillon brackets with serpentine pulleys ? :dunno:
