Truck (99-13) / Camaro (10-15) LS AC Bracket

Item# K10472
$269.00

Product Description

Wide-Mount AC relocation bracket for LS engines with Truck/SUV (1999-2013) and Camaro (2010-15) crank pulley and water pump spacing.

This bracket mounts the popular Sanden compressor just outside the passenger’s side valve cover and is driven by one main 6-rib serpentine belt.

This configuration is popular in classic muscle cars because it maintains low hood clearance without being as wide as some of our competitors.
Our overall width is just 16.26” from the center of the engine to the outer edge of the compressor.

If you have a narrow engine bay and this wide-mount bracket won’t fit, check out our “high and tight” AC bracket, K10291.



What's included:
  • Bracket made of 6061-T6 aircraft grade aluminum (brushed satin finish)
  • All necessary spacers and zinc coated fasteners
  • Automatic spring-style belt tensioner

What else is required to complete the installation:
  • GM LS Gen 3 or 4 engine with Truck/SUV (1999-2013) or Camaro (2010-15) harmonic balancer and water pump

    • Alternator rating and PS pulley diameters can change suggested lengths.
    • Always check tensioner marks for correct fitment.
  • Sanden SD709 AC compressor (also known as SD7H15)
  • We recommend the 709 over the 508 compressor for smoother operation and slightly more cooling capacity.

Why relocate the AC compressor for an LS swap?
  • GM made a fantastic engine with the LS design, but they didn’t always put the accessories in the best location for us engine-swapping hotrodders.
    By locating the AC compressor just outside the passenger side cylinder head you solve the possible frame clearance issues with chassis such as:
    • Camaro
      • 1st Gen (1967-69)
      • 2nd Gen (1970-81)
      • 3rd Gen (1982-92)
    • Chevelle (and other A-body cars, 1964-77)
    • Malibu (and other G-Body cars, 1978-88)
    • Full size Chevy pickups (1955+)
    • S10 pickups and S10 Blazers (1982-2004)
Why use a genuine Sanden AC compressor?
  • Many OEM AC compressors are a “variable displacement” design and don’t work well with older OEM or aftermarket AC systems
  • The OEM compressors have a 4-groove pulley instead of the 6-groove needed when moving the compressor to a higher location
  • Sanden is the aftermarket standard for AC compressors, recommended by most major AC manufacturers
What driver’s side bracket works with this AC bracket?

Teams up perfectly with our Wide Mount alternator/ (Type 2) power-steering bracket K10168 which allows more hood clearance and provides more steering gear / A-arm room.

Works with your OEM alternator/power-steering bracket

  • LS Truck (1999-2013)
  • Camaros (2010-2015)

Kwik Performance Idler Relocation kit K10618 allows you to use a low profile intake manifold and 2010+ Camaro water pump with OEM truck alternator/power-steering bracket

Don't want to spend time modifying, cleaning and painting the OEM bracket? Our K10611 bracket allows you to reuse your alternator and truck "P-series" power steering pump. We also tucked the pump for added steering gear and A-arm clearance.
