New style A/C compressor to old system question:

[danheit]

Hey guys, I just swapped in my spare 350 motor to my 71, and the new motor has a serpentine setup, including the A/C compressor from the 90 GMC it came out of. How can I connect the two systems together (I still have the factory A/C system, all connected, including the factory A/C compressor strapped to the pass. side fenderwell). I am trying to do this as inexpensively as possible, but would really like to have working A/C. The original system still works flawlessly, just need to swap to the new compressor. I have searched, and found very little. Surely someone has done a writeup on this! Please advise.

I have found that a good auto A/C shop can make up any kind of conversion hoses you will need. The 90 compressor should work fine.

If its an ac delco compressor Old Air Products might be able to help with an adapter.

Just take it to a local AC shop and have them look at the hoses and make up new ones. If they are a good shop they will know which ends you need. just by looking at both.
