hello

i need help in trying to find out how difficult it will be to put ac back on my 80 Monte Carlo. originally it had a carb turbo v6 that was swap out for a 350 sbc. how hard is it to get the a/c back up. will the wiring be the same? what parts will i need? i have also read about changing to a serpentine set up will that work? any input will be greatly appreciated

thanks in advance Sal

My approuch would be to snapshot your engine bay. (cell)Take some salvage yard trips, just looking, and comparing yours to the ones with what you want. I'm pretty sure the compressor wires are the same/local ground and clutch plug. Hopefully the comp locations (in the engine bay) are the same. Note make and models that have what you want, so you can order them. Notice the dryer connections to the condensor, that they are like yours. It's possible you'll find your car with the setup. good luck 8)
