    I have 2 sets of upper and lower AC compressor brackets from big car 455's. I also have 2 compressors with minor issues. Just pay the S&H and they are yours. Otherwise heading to dump next weekend.

    Mark,
    These brackets are different from a GS set-up?

    Are the lower brackets aluminum or steel?

    I think (99% sure) that they are all steel, but I will look later when I get back to the shop.

    NJBuickRacer I'd rather be racing...

    I could use the brackets if they're not spoken for.

    Put me in line,

    I need an upper bracket for 69 350 Skylark, I assume they are the same??

    350 and 455 are not the same.

    I'll re-phrase it. The 455 brackets from a big car are the same as a 455 GS application?

    George N had this to say....Originally Posted by moleary
    Are there any diffs between GS and big car 455 in the brackets for AC? Are there any differences between years either way?

    Same among all Buicks for a model year. Specific with brackets such as aluminum lower with stamped steel upper for 70. For 71-2 stamped/welded steel lower matched with stamped steel upper. You can NOT use the stamped steel upper 71-2 with the 70 cast alum lower since the holes will never line up... I tested this theory for several variations and could not get them to work.....so don't interchange years.

    Mark,
    Do you still have any 455 AC brackets left?

    I pithed the compressors, they seemed pretty frozen.
