    Street and Performance at www.hotrodlane.cc has both a high mount and a low mount. Pretty spendy, but good stuff and excellent customer support. These are to mount a Sanden type compressor. I think Vintage Air may also have one. You can see what the S&P high mount looks like in my project journal, follow the link in my sig.

    Of course, that's just my opinion, I could be wrong!

    Thanks. I checked the S&P catolog. They want $600.00. I will not pay that. I will check vintage air.

    I think that price includes a compressor. I got mine without the compressor and it was just under $400. I know thier prices are going up 15% though. I searched high and low for an alterantive and could not find anything any cheaper, unfortunately I did not feel confident trying to make my own.

    Except, unfortunately stuff for LS1 (3rd Gen Small Block). :-(

    Alan Grove does have great stuff and I'm sure they will eventually start building stuff for the late model small blocks. They are beginning to see a lot of swaps with them and the few players making parts need some competition!

    I just found this on their web page:

    Check the universal bracket for building your own.
