Re: Vintage Air Compressor install, I am lost...

Where did you get your alternator bracket?
Original to the truck
and are you running a vintage air compressor?
It is supplied with the kit but it basically is a Sanden SD-5 which is a very common light weight compressor ( not like the A6 boat anchor that was original to the truck
And is that the stock fan shroud?
Yes original 72 4x4 shroud?
What's your motor and water pump (short or long) type?
Original 350 short pump.. I also have a 4 core radiator and auxiliary electric fan helping the condenser. (the heat in Las Vegas is brutal)

Mine clears too (non-AC cab). The right side kick panel vent is still functional.
