I am trying to install a Chevy LT1 engine into my 1935 Ford Pickup but am having difficulty getting it to fit.  The AC is in the way, and I am looking for a different place to mount it.  I already have to remove the AC to install the motor mounts.  Any ideas where I can find the parts I need?  This is my first full restoration project and any tips or tidbits of advice would be appreciated.

look on ebay under lt1 you can find a bracket that relocate's the a/c from the bottom passager side to the top driver side for about $200.00

you can also buy a a/c delete bracket for now for $40.00. Then you can run the engine until you get a different bracket.
