reproduction factory 6 cyl a/c brackets
 

for those that are tired of all the small blocks and think the inlines are cool:
what interest would there be for replica gm 6 cyl a/c brackets. mid 60's vintage.

i prefer the factory look myself - (even if modified i prefer the modification to look like a factory install vs an aftermarket affair. it looks more professional that way)

in the past i've had to use a later block (integral head), switching the head of course, and use the gm r-4 setup. i now have a set of original a-6 brackets i am toying with reproducing if there is an interest.

Which inline 6 cyl series are you looking at?

1. - 216/235/261
2. - 230/250
3. - 292

or all three series?

Don't forget the 194!

Re: reproduction factory 6 cyl a/c brackets
 

mid 60's
194-292
don't know about the 235-probably not

Re: reproduction factory 6 cyl a/c brackets
 

The 194-250 were the same block height, but had slight differences in size. The 292 has a much taller block height and is bigger. 194-250 in certain year may have been the same block I am not sure. The 235 and 261 shared the same side covers....Though I will say that repro-brackets would be cool! :chevy:

1963- L6 194 230 250 292 same as passenger car.

There`s no different diagram in the instruction book for 292.

1964 got a Cast Bracket?

believe that there is a difference between the 292 and the others and that difference brings in the bigger $

The 292 was only produced with an alternator in all production years as far as I know so what I was getting at was the bolt holes in the block and I believe the a/c is mounted on the other side? But the 194-250 were the same. But the 292 is a whole different block, 2 inches taller on the side covers do to the 4.120 stroke. But could I get a picture of the factory version? I'm interested in seeing? Thanks. T.J.:chevy:

:) they dont bolt to the block

Re: reproduction factory 6 cyl a/c brackets
 

ok, then ill charge more if its for a 292 :)

Re: reproduction factory 6 cyl a/c brackets
 

Sorry I did not know...never seen the actual set up so....:dohh:

Re: reproduction factory 6 cyl a/c brackets
 

well that tells me what i wanted to know. it's not worthwhile reproducing oem a/c brackets

Re: reproduction factory 6 cyl a/c brackets
 

Reproducing Power Steering brackets for the 250's and the 292's might yield bigger interest.

Re: reproduction factory 6 cyl a/c brackets
 

i believe there is someone doing ps brkts albeit not oem style
