    Any one got photos or info on installing air conditioner compressor on 241 dodge hemi, hot heads show brackets to use with their conversion cover and Chevy parts , but I’d like to keep original dodge parts on the front and add air on the lower side if possible, but on top if I have to

    Not a hemi but I’m in the process of installing an ac compressor on a 303 olds and will be going this route using adjustable tensioning rods from Amazon . Pretty clean and simple.

    Same brackets, plus longer bolts and spacers.

    Probably the only production AC bracket you might find for that engine would be an aftermarket bracket for a York compressor for add on Air that was put on when the car was reasonably new if you could ever find one to adapt for a newer bracket. Even the most********** couldn't say that a York compressor wasn't traditional or period correct but I wouldn't run one now.
    I'd expect to have to advance my fabricating skills more than a little bit and design and fab up a bracket.

    Is this a particular kit for the mounting of these accessories? This is really clean routing for a full accessory drive on an early Olds. I'd be very interesting in hearing/seeing more about this.

    Not a kit, just saw the picture online and it made sense so I purchased the tensioning rods from Amazon. They come in different lengths and are strong as heck. I just got them in the mail today and plan on running an 8 1/2” one in the front like the picture and a 2 1/2” one attached to a small bracket on the front head bolt. I think it should work?

    Problem with the 241 is there are no bosses cast in the heads. The block is the same. Tried doing PS in my 52 Dodge PU. So, the only way to bolt anything on is through the timing cover
