I need a good picture breakdown of BBC a/c brackets for my '72 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

drink2mny · 08-05-2005, 03:58 AM

Well I am half way there..

But I believe i still need a back bracket that goes to the intake or something..
Could someone please take good pics of the whole BBC a/c setup..

Thanks

I also need the 2 metal tubes that go to the condensor...
Anyone..anyone..

Here are some I took for someone several years ago . If you need more let me know I also have a better camera now .

Bill72BB · 08-05-2005, 11:54 AM

Some others

drink2mny · 08-05-2005, 02:31 PM

Thanks Bill. I don't think my brackets look like those.
Or atleast I am missing 3 more pieces..
Also the heater hoses go through a holder/bracket on the compressor bracket underneath???

Is this bracketry correct so far???

Anyone else have som epics too to compare?

Thanks again Bill

I dont have pics but bill72bb's set up is correct.....I am not sure but there might be one more bracket that he is missing that would go to the exhaust manifold but since he is running headers he would not be able to utilize that one without a spacer.....Paul

drink2mny · 08-05-2005, 06:22 PM

Yeah i'm running headers also. I had to put a spacer down there too..

Brackets on mine look just like Bill's.

Dam.. What do I have then??

It looks like the one front bracket in the pic is OK. You just need to add one more front bracket and the one over the valve cover in the rear. The one that goes over the valve cover won't clear a taller cover though. I can't tell from the pic if those Edelbrock covers are stock height.

I had to make the bracket that goes over the valve cover at the rear to clear my alum. valve cover.
