Old51, if you didn't already have the Alt and PS brackets and pulleys figured out, I would have suggested modifying the vintage Air bracket to move it forward. At this point, it would be like starting over again.

I see a lot of AC conversions with the hoses standing up in the air like that and I cringe every time.
Sanden wants the Plug on top or within 90* , but you also have the option of clocking the rear housing (Head). With a new compressor I wouldn't even worry about a new gasket.
