One last try fitting the AC.

I guess it's silly wanting to have AC in a small British roadster that has easily four times the performance (power, braking, handling)it came with. But being of the ME generation, I naturally want it all.

1. I will have to cut down that protrusion to make a little more room.		2. Here's clearance along the side, with the FWD bracket.
3. And with the RWD bracket.		4. The two compressors next to each other. It might work with the FWD (right) compressor, with the RWD (left) clutch.
5. More up and down shot.		6. Pretty much deciding it won't fit, there's the alternator hanging downward, instead of up.
7. The pulleys don't quite line up. I will either have to modify the bracket, or just get a FWD crank pulley.		8. Here you can see how much it is off. I'd rather get the crank pulley since moving the alternator forward could cause clearance issues.
9. There might be frame interference, if I don't modify the bracket, so it sits closer to the block.		10. I need to clean up this little stubby still.

At least it's not holding me up from doing the motor mounts anymore.
