Need that AC life 💁🏼‍♂️

Don't they make an LS bracket that allows you to put an R4 compressor on top where you don't have to notch the frame, or would it be too tall for the hood? Seems I've seen one of those somewhere.

They do, but I need the room for turbo hotside stuff. I’m also trying to use as much LS truck parts as possible because I got a whole pull out from a Silverado.

D'oh!!! Turbo...forgot about that. Even though it's right there in your thread title. Color me stupid. I was simply lamenting having to notch frames for A/C- which is a bit of an undertaking.

I see you already have the v-band welded in, but you can grab manifolds from an earlier truck that doesn’t have the damn egr port.
