Miximus Posted July 14, 2013 Report Posted July 14, 2013 (edited) Hey Guy's, I currently have a T-18 Project I'm Doing up and I'm having some trouble setting up the Air con... I'm going to be running a 3T block with 2TG head (already built) I'm having trouble figuring out the Standard Air Con Setup..... I Bought a 3T-C A/C Bracket today which fits appart from the twin cam Chain tensioner hitting the top where the 3T-C Air pump normally goes. But that's not the issue as i can just Cut off the top of the bracket to fit... The issue is i can't figure out how the A/C actually bolts up to the Bracket with the Tensioner Correctly.. If anyone has a Standard Air Con setup on their 3T it would be great if you could take some pics of how it all fits up so i can figure out how I'm meant to make it all fit! Ill post up some Pics of where I've got it to so far... just charging my phone atm... Cheers 3T-G running Twin Dellorto 40MM Carby's The Standard 3T A/C Bracket Not Sure which of these is the Right Pump...?? :S Theres also this random bracket which came fitted to the Pump when i bought the car... This is the Tensioner Peice i have... Edited July 14, 2013 by Miximus Quote
Miximus Posted July 14, 2013 Author Report Posted July 14, 2013 I Also Have a Haynes Repair Manual, But its for a Left Hand Drive TE72 and everything is Different.. Quote
AE25 Posted July 27, 2013 Report Posted July 27, 2013 yep the dohc bracket is different to the 3t-c pics. the dohc pump uses 4 bolts to mount it solid to the bracket and has a sliding tensioner pulley on the bracket to adjust belt tension. Quote
Miximus Posted July 29, 2013 Author Report Posted July 29, 2013 yea i think I'm going to use a 3T-C bracket and just modify it to fit so it doesn't foul on the Chain Tensioner.. Thanks for the pics too ;) Quote
