69 S Code air conditioner bracket query
« on: August 02, 2015, 08:06:22 AM »
Hi all, I have a 69 390 S code Mach 1 that is supposed to have air conditioning according to the Marti report. I have been told that the 390 has a specific bracket for the air conditioning but I don't know what it is supposed to look like. Does anyone have a pic that they can post for me please.

Thanks
Mark

Does this help From a 69 (boxed in 68 I believe) 390 AC engine kit

The adjustable idler bracket in the picture (one with pulley) is the only one of the four that was used on ether BB or SB . The other brackets at BB specific.

For 1969 with S, Q or R code engines, the cast iron pedestal bracket for the compressor should have a casting number of C9AA-2882-A.
C7SA-2882-A is the casting number for 1967-68 cars with 390/428CJ.

Also, in Jeff's picture the idler bracket should have a stationary pulley mounted in that hole.
