[Chrysler300] Brackets & Belts for '57 with air conditioning

["keboonstra" <kboonstra@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Can anyone give me little help on brackets and belts? I want to put an A/C compressor from a '59 Chrysler (383) on my '57 300C, and I can't quite figure out how to deal with the belts. I have not been able to find much in photos that are helpful on the internet either.

I've seen a photo showing a pair of belts running over the double A/C pulley to a double pulley on the generator (my generator pulley is only single now), but I can't see how the PS pump and the fan are run. Does it require a 4-groove pulley on the crank so you also have a double on the PS pump and fan?

I am also interested in obtaining the right brackets to mount the compressor on the 392 in my C. Anybody have those for me? And do you have any of the correct pulleys? 

How about some of the correct A/C piping? I have what appears to be a good condenser coil from the '59 that fits right up, but the tubing to the compressor runs a little different from the '57 (I suspect the compressor is on the left side of the engine).

Thanks for your help.
