im not to terribly worried about the mount again the beautys of having a father who works in an autoshop specializing in custom ac there are endless numbers of brakets floating around were gonna find one that works or is atleast close and then modify it wiring isnt to hard just stusy the wiring diagram in the fsm for a few and do a little thinkin

i would like to take this chance to thank my dad he has done alot to help me with this build it has definatly sped the build up (still would have gotten done just not as fast and without come of the cool parts i have now )

been a while since i updated so here we go

i got my rims on its nice to have matching wheels

fitment shots
fronts are perfect


next time i get tires im gonna step up from a 185 to a 205 and they will fit perfectly if not needing a slight roll


little bit more paint action


i can has ac?



all thats left is to have ends welded onto 2 of the hard lines 2 softlines made evac and recharge then finish the electrical and it will be 34 degrees in my car when its 116 outside summer here i come

i finished up the ac lines now i just need to wire it and recharge it

and an artsy parting shot

im slackin on this thread here we go

got some new parts *drum roll*

SU'S BABY!!!
got um for a steal of a deal i need to get the spacers linkage and one banjo fitting but other then that im ready to rock im gonna polish the tops out before i mount them here are the pics







little bit of alt mockup


different mounts



in the car






then making the brakets and actually installing

my dad using the drill press to drill some holes


brakcet mock up


rounding the edges off the brakets


bolted in solid (car actually runnin in this shot)


with every possible load on it at an idle


end result you cant go wrong with 105 amps and considering all we did was make some brakets and run one wire its a total win

_________________

you already have the alt mounted but if you look at a 520 or early 620 pickup. look at alt mount the bracket would work for that setup i used to run 13b rotary alt on my z22 with l head keep up the good work this 610 seems to have all the bases covered especially ac..sometimes i wish my kgc10 had ac....o well

the alt was one of those work with whats offered kinda things i got the alt for free and i already had all the stuff for the brakets so all i had to buy was the plug for the alt and that was the 2 dollar entrance fee at the yard

thanks for the kind words the ac was all custom fab in so you could have ac as well just go to get ahold of the right parts

_________________

just read through your whole thread, and keep up the good work! pretty cool now that you have AC...this summer is probably going to be deadly hot..ughh

i went 4 years without ac in the other car im not sure where you are in the bay area but here in vacaville its not uncommon for it to hit 110 in the summer so im very happy to have 40 degree air blowin on me

"nos" grill
