V8 Aircon engine brackets

Hello All, I am after any pics of 308/efi with aircond. I like the idea of drivers side under the power steering pump but it is not going to fit because of the hr crossmember. I have a bunch of mounts but looking for pics of the different setups.

Mine only fits in there because I have the V6 conversions front end, and it was a super tight fit. Don't think you would be able to do it under the power steer pump with the HR front. When I had the van, I had to mount the compressor up high on the V6. Have you got photos of your set up as it sits in the bay. Would love a look to kick ideas around.
Cheers

yes I tried your setup and it hits the hr cross member sides so that option is not going to work
. I have the vs power steering pump on the drivers side and alternator on the passenger standard but want to get the aircon while everything is being put together. It is very tight but having a ball. I found a pitchure of a vk brock engine where the aircon is above the alternator on the drivers side and the power steering on the passenger. Anyone tried this setup with/without efi?

It's really a matter of having the units (alt,power steer, and aircond) located where they will actually fit and then making the brackets to suit, so if it you can hold the units with the pulleys in the approximate position and they fit then go for it I say.
I had a thought about above the engine as well, like a supercharger, but wouldn't look real good.
