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

I Also Have a Haynes Repair Manual, But its for a Left Hand Drive TE72 and everything is Different..

 

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.

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 ;)

Man i wish those engines were more common in the US, they are like Unicorns over here
