GBGS Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 (edited) Looking to buy the rear bracket that attaches the AC compressor to the dual quad intake manifold. The engine is a 1965 401 with aluminum valve covers (thanks Patrick). Thanks. Edited May 29, 2011 by GBGS (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Riviera Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 I have the Trans kickdown bracket for the 2 x 4 set-up - I am thinking about having the rear A/C bracket made as well . You might check with me later if you dont find one . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick91914 Posted May 29, 2011 Share Posted May 29, 2011 Are you using the standard valve covers or the aluminum valve covers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GBGS Posted May 29, 2011 Author Share Posted May 29, 2011 Patrick, that's a good question and something I missed in the initial thread. I'm using the aluminum valve covers. Thanks for asking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RivNut Posted May 29, 2011 Share Posted May 29, 2011 Clark's Corvair has this bracket in their Riviera catalog. It's not a true reproduction but it will allow you to run the taller valve covers with the factory a/c. I've heard from one guy who bought one that it needs a little tweaking to make it fit. I don't know what "tweaks" it took.Ed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GBGS Posted May 29, 2011 Author Share Posted May 29, 2011 Ed,I have one of those and 'tweaked' it to make it work. Tweaking involves bending the upper arm forward to meet the hole in the intake manifold. Thanks for the suggestion anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
