hi again. so i have an LT1 from a 96 fleetwood and i was reading that in order to use A/C i would have to notch frame and modify the engine mount bracket. well thats a little over my head so I decided to get the corvette bracket ( 40 bucks from junkyard). now i know i need the accesories from the corvette also (ac compressor 40 bucks, altenator 40 bucks, PS pump and PS resovior 60 bucks) might there be any other parts i would need for this conversion? and can i use the same opti and that coil looking thing and do i relocate any thing to make this bracket work? and can i use any of the accesories that I already have?

Pretty sure you need the crank pulley/balancer and possibly the crank hub.
