Has anyone successfully hooked up their AC with headers and aftermarket heads? One of the original AC brackets bolted to the manifolds no way I can see it working with the headers. Can't see where the other bracket on the left bolts to the heads to get this all to work? Has anyone come up with a solution?

I'm aware of an aftermarket bracket for using the A3 compressor, but I'm not sure if there's a bracket for the R4. On mine, I used the bracket for the A3 axial compressor and had to use a stud and a spacer. The spacer was an old bronze Porsche valve guide that I had laying around from one my rebuilds.
You may also need to use the existing studs and spacers to take up the space used for the stock exhaust manifolds. Or possibly a longer stud(s).
