I’m working on a turbo project and I am trying to figure out what differences there are in the AC brackets between an 89 and say a 92 or 93 .

The compressors are of the same family(save for the dealer AC cars which got Sandens) but have different part numbers

- Do these brackets locate the compressors in the same relative spot (think turbo/manifold clearance) ?
-Assuming I use custom ac lines, will the compressors from either year mount on either year’s brackets?


Bonus question:
-Is the alternator and power steering mounting the same year to year?
