What other conservative modifications should I consider? Is the weight savings of an all aluminum block worth it? Especially since a blower is possible later?

Any suggestions for A/C compressors? Mounting location? Could I use the one the motor comes with? This is a 70' C10.
I heard Doc's blocks work for the a/c compressor.
