1Bad454 Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 Hey guys I bought a remanufactured A6 compressor and picked up some compressor mounting brackets from The Parts Place. After assembling everything it looks like the rear lower bracket is not lining up. Can somebody take a look at theirs and tell me if my brackets are installed wrong. I'm thinkin that maybe the exhaust mounting bracket is incorrect. Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Brichta Posted April 11, 2022 Share Posted April 11, 2022 I believe the problem is that you are using the stock lower mounting bracket that is meant for stock manifolds and you are obviously now using headers. I believe you can purchase one meant for headers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Boyte Posted April 11, 2022 Share Posted April 11, 2022 I too believe that a header A/C bracket will be a necessity . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dtret Posted April 11, 2022 Share Posted April 11, 2022 That bracket mounts on the engine block Headers should not effect that( I think). But here are a couple pictures of mine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
