Had to Notch it
I had to notch the frame on the crew to get the AC compressor in. Either the 3/4 ton frame difference is throwing me off, or the big block shells are different. The mounts that I am using are the same as the drawings in the mount thread. I was going to bend up the frame upper flange to about 45 degrees but that didn't work so well so I cut it out and made a new plate and welded it in. I also found a crack in the frame where the PO trimmed it for a header tube. I ground a v and welded it up. Sorry for the poor quality pics. I left the memory card for the camera at home and had to use my cell.
