Ill get you some, give me a day or two though.

One thing I forgot to mention is that I did have to modify one of the mounting plates that come in the kit. The plate I modified was the one that mounts to the block on the bottom, there are 3 bolt holes used by the stock compressor, I used the front 2 and cut off the back one as my motor mounts were in the way. I made a quick picture of where I cut.

Another thing that is probably crucial in making this low mount bracket work in relation to engine mounts is the accessory drive spacing. I have the long truck/new camaro spacing and it worked, Im not sure if the short or medium would clear, atleast in my application.
