Sanden makes a compressor that is a direct bolt in to your original. Only difference is it's aluminum and about 20 +/- pounds lighter.

Thank you Steeveedee it is. I bought this last December from Joes Junk a guy here on the forum. Great guy. I rebuilt the whole AC system and got everything I needed from Auto AC Solutions. JW helped me and was a pleasure to work with. Extremely happy with all the parts. Replaced everything except for the evaporator. Here's what it looked like when I got it. Everything was there just needed cleaned up a bit.

There are a couple options for bolt in replacement compressors. Pro6ten or S6 I think these are the same unit. I've heard they are a denso body not sanden but I could be wrong.

Four Seasons also makes a new replacement Summit

I purchased a sanden 508 comp. off the classified and was going to swap it in place of my original . Wanted to know if it will fit or if new brackets are needed

You will need to fab or get creative with new brackets.

I used an ICT billet bracket to mount a 508 compressor on my 327. It fits perfectly and the belt alignment is right on.
