I have a question for either Shoebox or Injuneer or anyone.

What is the part number for the rear bracket for the A/C compressor on a 97 z28 with the 5.7 LT1? The reason my compressor fell off is because whoever changed the engine block DIDN'T feel it was neccesary to put it back on...So the front three bolts kept shaking until they broke off in the bracket and block...Oh so lovely!

Does anyone know what the part number is? Or where I can find one? Anyone got a picture because if I have to Fab one I can't make heads or tails from the GM Tech Manual for the year of camaro I have....It's a damn drawing that is horrible....Looks like a hose or something comes off of it!....LOL.

Thank ya'll in advance.

That sucks man. I guess I need to get mine back on asap...lol. I didn't remember to put it on right away and after looking at it was kind of like eh...that thing can't brace to much.

Yeah the compressor will bounce ever so slightly up and down in the rear and eventually snap the front three bolts clean off. In order to fix it you have to pull the altenator, the power steering pump and the compressor and then take the bracket off and drill out the bolts and then find three new bolts that fit and then put it all back in and then fish the rear support back in there. I helped my dad at the dealership with this and went ahead and did new plugs and wires while the passenger side was clear of all that.

i see youre already covered... when i broke mine the part number was right on the bracket itself.
