Has anyone done this install? If so, is there a thread on the necessary steps to make it happen?
thanx!
 
Their is a adapter for the 5.3 to bolt the sanden compressor to the 5.3 which I believe is what vintage air uses. I don't know who makes it but google should bring it up. You can use other compressors too but just have to adapt the hoses. Thats about all you have to do.
Is their any programming that has to be done to the 5.3 ecu or does VA's ecu control the compressor?
 
Some program the engine ECU to bump up the idle a bit when the ac compressor kicks on., but not required.
 
Did you guys do the lower or upper mount with the compressor? I'm wondering if there is room for the lower mount?
 
Its unlikely there is room for the lower mount.
Did you go with the upper mount then? If so, do you have any pics you could share? Thanx!
