Precision-Mount A/C Drive for LS Swap Reliability

Optimized for LS engine swaps, this medium high mount AC compressor drive delivers rapid and consistent cabin cooling through a seven piston pump cast in lightweight aluminum, reducing weight without sacrificing performance. Precision engineered mounting provisions and a billet aluminum pulley ensure seamless integration and smooth belt operation. Backed by US manufacturing, its durable components require minimal upkeep while preserving vehicle agility and efficiency.

High Mount AC Compressor Drive with Medium Compressor for LS Engine Swaps

On LS swaps that pair a modern powerplant with classic chassis, air conditioning alignment often conflicts with fuel rails and intake runners, and this compressor drive assembly solves that by positioning the pump above those obstructions. Its internal seven piston compressor delivers consistent cabin cooling under diverse driving conditions while a lightweight aluminum pulley preserves belt tension and accessory function. Installation hardware matches GM mounting points to simplify setup and ensure precise belt tracking. Beyond clearance advantages this assembly reduces noise and wear by maintaining stable refrigerant pressure cycles without common thermal spikes, and the precision fit components minimize the need for mock fitting or modification.

Seven Piston Compressor Architecture for Uniform Cabin Cooling

The medium mount compressor features seven piston chambers operating in a balanced cycle to move refrigerant with minimal flow variation. This arrangement maintains steady pressure pulses that prevent thermal spikes and deliver uniform air conditioning response under heavy engine load or high ambient temperatures. By dividing the workload across multiple cylinders, cooling performance responds instantly when the system powers on, avoiding hotspots and ensuring passenger comfort. These design choices contribute to consistent cabin temperature control during spirited driving or extended highway runs.

Precision Aluminum Construction and Weight Management

Every critical component is machined from high grade aluminum to provide rigidity without adding excess mass to the engine front end. The billet pulley resists wear at elevated belt tensions, while the housing design sheds unneeded weight that can dull throttle response. This careful use of aluminum helps preserve vehicle agility by reducing rotating mass, which in turn sharpens engine response and handling in classic chassis applications. Additionally, all parts undergo precision machining in the USA to maintain tight tolerances and reliable fitment.

Serpentine Belt Integration for LS Engine Swap Applications

Positioning the compressor above fuel rails and intake manifolds clears common obstructions on LS engine installations, enabling a direct path for the belt across pulleys. The pulley features machined grooves to ensure smooth tracking and reduce the likelihood of slip or noise during operation, which can degrade accessory life over time. This optimized layout also eases strain on the crank balancer and prevents uneven belt wear that leads to premature failure. Installers benefit from a precise belt path that requires minimal adjustment to achieve correct tension on the first attempt.

Complete Hardware Kit for Streamlined Installation

The drive assembly ships with all necessary brackets, bolts and spacers tailored to GM mounting points, concentrating on a hassle free swap process. Hardware selection balances corrosion resistance and material strength to secure the compressor under rigorous driving conditions. Factory preset clearances remove the need for mock fitting or post installation adjustments, saving valuable shop time. By addressing fitment and alignment in a single package, this kit ensures technicians achieve a professional level installation without additional fabrication.

Engineered for precise fit and reliable performance in LS engine swaps.
