To your hijacking no problem my love it anybody can hijack that’s just a much more I learn. I’ve got another interesting question on the upper control arm back where it bolts on,, the old one was round and the new one is moog that can either sit back further or up further and do you put the spacers back because it’s a thinner piece. Does that make sense
Those Moog cross shafts are ment to "correct" the control arm from stock to a improved position. They are ment to mount one way as they are marked how they are to be mounted. No spacers but shims for camber adjustment. I have them on my car.

Big pry bar?
I modified an internal compressor so I can honestly say I have never seen that before.

I don't see this ending well.
I got the spring compressor parts out and everything turned out OK I am wondering about the air and heat housing part on the firewall can that be used with a V-8 since it was a six cylinder in the car. And all the little vacuum Controls

The ac/heater case is the same for V8 and V6.
