July 8, 20186 yr comment_552630 Where is your compressor mounted? If it's the monster York thing on the right side that surrounds the fuel pump, then all the engine threaded holes on that side are M8x1.25. If its mounted down low on the header side, those four threaded bosses on the block low down are M10x1.5mm As to length, get your tape measure out....

July 8, 20186 yr Author comment_552633 Thank you zKars yes it was the four bolts on the block that were 10×1.5 mm As for the length it came out to be 7/8 of an inch I just have to find bolts that short that a 10.9 strength Metric now ???

July 8, 20186 yr Author comment_552639 zKars I saw an older post where you had installed the GEN two mini I was wondering if you had pictures of the brackets you use to mount the unit under the dashboard and if so what metal used and where I could purchase that metal ?

July 10, 20186 yr comment_552756 Im going to be doing an install as soon as the damn eBay person ships the vintage air unit. Your best bet for the mounts is just to make them out of a thin bar of steel. At least that's what it seems that everyone else is doing.

July 10, 20186 yr Author comment_552770 Heyitsrama yup you’re right someone messaged me to use sheet metal that is used for making the frames on homes, to bad there is no one that just makes a kit ?

July 11, 20186 yr comment_552856 Up until the last one, I was making the brackets from scratch. The last though I used bracket arms from vintage air. https://www.vintageair.com/brackets/ Then attached them to a plate I made that fits the four M10 block bosses.
