Looks like you have the A/C hooked up. Do you have more pictures of the parts used? I have a conversion compressor manifold that I bought through ford cummins but have yet to attempt hooking the whole deal up.

Thanks

I have all the same components you mentioned, the plates are destroked and the manifold is simply a Dodge factory part that bolts up to the compressor. What I'd like to know primarily are your hose lengths/routing.

But I thought the fc stuff was the chit? Man, the truck has turned out great! I'm hoping to upgrade my 95 as soon as I get my 72 chevy done-ish. Heck, they're never done!

my a/c and alernator setup is off a tractor setup if u want the same parts contact the member 9724VF350 he sell all of theses componets, Then just go to napa and put new ends on ur factory hoses.

I bought my motor mounts in 06 they where fine.
In 08 i ordered tach kit,alt,sensor,and powersteering kit
and this last trip home i had to exchange the gas tach for diesel tone ring
called them 4 times to ask them about refunding my parts it took them 3 weeks to do so.When i got the tone ring no torque specs no problem called FC they should know they didnt and was suppose to call me back never got a call.
as for their instructions i have 3 versions
1. from 06 good pics and instructions
2 from 09 decient little less pics
3.from last trip horrible less information

Not one of their books say anything about a engine fan i tried 3 different setups before going with electric fans,
To say the least i will build my motor mounts form my 89
As for their motor mounts they as nothing more than C channel and flatplate they are fine if u dont want to build them
tone rings are nice but that would be the only thing i would buy.Also the tone ring sensor the first one i got came in a ford bag the last two i bought was rebaged and the factory connector was cut off. so if the tach sensor goes out i will have to rewire and resplice it

All those reasons above and some bigger others are why I quit buying any thing from them long, long, ago.

I got my motor mounts from them as well as instructions as to how to wire in a 24V VP into my '97 and they were pretty helpful at the time. I haven't tried contacting them since. Oh, how are you liking the Electric fans?
