Can a 87 vette a/c system fit my 79?

[Mtrhd329]

I am pulling my dash out and making one out of fiberglass. I am using a 87 corvette for all of my parts. I am already using the digital dash and was wondering if i could swap out the whole A/C setup somehow. I should be able to just modify the hole in the firewall and put the interior side in like it would be in the vette right? I figure the engine side of the A/C system should be fine as i am using the motor and serpentine from the same car. Might have to tweak the plastic housing a little bit but i am thinking that this might work. Am I just crazy or does this sound like it might work?

I was also thinking of mounting the controls in the headliner to keep the dash clean. Any thoughts or suggestions are welcome. Thanks

Anything can be done but will it be worth it? I dont remember corvette A/C working better than a truck. if you decide to do this we want pictures.

I am not really worried about which one works better as my windows usually double as my air conditioning. I am mainly looking to swap the compressor since it is already setup for the serpentine and to go an electric controls.

All I know if your going from a non A/C truck it will be cheaper and easier in the long run to just source the correct parts.
