AC 4 Seasons 58229 Compressor

Hey everyone, help required URGENTLY!

What gasket do I have to use to get this compressor to work with my stock AC system.

It says everywhere that this is the compressor to use, and it fits totally. But when you come to hook up the actual AC pipes they're a different design and size than the areas on the pump.

Anyone used this?

Cheers,
Rich

PS Plea bear in mind the motor is a 1985 2.8 V6 MPFi

Need the pilots and gaskets. See the screen shot for part numbers.

So the 21000 gaskets I've ordered won't work? Surely the compressor should ship with these included?

I don't know, are they color coded? By the looks of them that kit should work.
