    I can take pictures of the keihin if I remember. I have the compressor off my parts car so its just right there if its not fossilizing beneath a mile of sludge

    That would be perfect and maybe the manifold that goes with it?

    Probably. I remember moving the compressor off the floor where it has been since the car backed into the garage, but I dont remember where. Kind of doubt it went to the scrap pile.

    Heres a picture of the Denso bracket. I also have the Kehein bracket. ill get a few pictures of it this weekend.

    I did the kehien to Denso swap on my 86 prelude as the kehien compressors just didnt want to last with r-134. i do have several pictures of the process that i would be happy to share if needed.

    heres the Kehein compressor mounted in the car

    I am wanting to build a 3D scanner in the near future. Parts like these brackets are the first things I should throw into it.

    Too bad we can't get 3D scans of these kinds of parts.

    Well two thoughts off the top of my head...

    1. Could the Kehein bracket be modified(easily) to work with the Denso?

    2. Is there another car make model what ever that we can use?

    3. Gotta have air man I mean common....

    Pretty much already did... I just need a large 3d printer and enough energy to even remember to mess with an AC bracket.

    If I remember correctly there are two ND compressors that can use the same bracket, one just has a longer body... and the Keihin has its own.

    Back in the day they used to say the Keihin doesn't play well with r134 but I doubt that, as long as you flush it all and run PAG it should be fine. Hell I ran iit on propane at 70psi low until I found all the leaks

    PAG might help, but in my experience r134 leaks right out... Performance would probably be awful at that
