AC power wire resistor

[BobW]

Finally got AC hoses made for the Sanden compressor on the Passenger side.

The stock compressor switch wire has a resistor that was mounted to the body (ground) of the stock compressor. Is that resistor necessary on the new Sanden compressor?

What does Sanden say about it?

Jim, you're always the voice of reason! Just sent them in inquiry, I'll post their reply when I get it.

Bob,

Which model of Sanden compressor did you get? 

My factory AC compressor is locked up and I'm thinking of getting a Sanden compressor and some aftermarket BB AC compressor brackets for my 72 air conditioned Monte.

It's an SD-7B10 that came with a March Performance accessory mid-mount system.

Which vendor did you get the mid-mount system from? Do they make it for a Big Block Chevy?

My friend already has a Sanden AC compressor that I can have, but I'll just need to see which model of compressor it is first.

You could go with an S6 compressor It looks similar to  A6 hooks up the same no hoses to change and has Sanden guts i have been told. I have a chrome one and it works great.
