Here is a photo of the ac bracket before I milled it. The only reason I milled it is because I wanted to use a 1" thick aluminum bracket in the photo in the previous post. The unmodified ac bracket only needs to be spaced 1/4" off the head to line up the pulley. In hindsight Im sure a 1/4" steel plate would have worked. With the steel plate ya dont have enough meat to drill and thread for bolts but one could drill, tap and install studs with red loc-tite. I think its still a tough bracket to make but if ya have patience and a good jig saw it can be done. Then ya dont need to mill the ac bracket.
The only thing I dont think I posted a pic of yet is the new idler which is now located on the lower right side of the waterpump pulley. I think I posted a vid of an early mock up in a previous post. Ill have to check for that. If not you'll see it soon here.
