A/C Brackets

[KevGT40]

Hey, I`m hoping someone has, or could take some pictures of their ps and a/c brackets on their 5.0L

The reason being my 88GT is a factory non-a/c car and I`m putting it in. I got the brackets and compressor from an late 80's t-bird and bolted them up. I`m assuming their not the same as now I can't close my hood, maybe 2 1/2" to go.... Based on pictures online of the compressor, it looks identical. The only other variable are the Prothane Motor Mounts I have in the car. After putting them in, it did make the engine sit higher. Didn't think it has 2 1/2" though.

Any pictures or advice would be appreciated.

Thanks

you know you gonan have to pull the dash and cut the firewall to add ac right ...compressor should clear stock hood just fine....post pics of what u got

Shouldnt have to cut the firewall, but you will need a new HVAC box and the foam pad that goes in between the HVAC box and the firewall in the inside.

Long story short I now have right brackets except for one. I need the black steel bracket that bolts to the back of the compressor as the one I have is the square peg round hole situation.

won't fit onto

Found a pic of the one I need.

Does anyone have a spare bracket lying around they would be willing to
sell. I`m 4 hours from the nearest wrecker, and they don't get 5.0L
Mustangs either. I`m currently living in northern Alberta.
