Thats not a bad deal on the mounts and adapters. Do the newer than 68 trucks have the mounts on the frame that have the tabs for the crossbolt to go through on the motor mounts. The 68 has a bolt that goes through the stand and into the mount going toward the engine. The price on the harness and controller isn't too bad if you don't have anything from the donor already. On the AC. I used the stock compressor but built bracket out of angle iron that moves it in closer to the engine. You use a shorter belt. I also used the 6 cyl stands and it moved the engine to the rear and lower.Good luck with your project.
