Are you kidding me? That’s what I want to do. I want to put a Magnuson or whipple. I didn’t know there was a problem. I have the old air product compressor with the Allen grove upper ac compressor mount. Interested in what you do!

LSX Concepts has brackets for Magnuson. Purchased a complete bracket set from them for my LSA https://www.lsxconcepts.com/

Thanks Richard
it looks like they have several options. I will call them see if I can keep the brackets I have and add just what I need to install the supercharger. most of the kits they offer replaces all the factory brackets. adding $2,000.00 to the cost of the supercharger.

All the brackets are available separately. Supercharger, high mount A/C, alternator/ power steering. If you look at the complete kits it will says what it comes with. I believe all the brackets are designed around Corvette/Camaro spacing. If your existing drive components are something else they probably will not work with his stuff. Just give a call, he can tell you what will work and will sell you only what is needed.
