Sanden SD-7 Compressor Fittings

[70TWO NOVA]

I bought a Vintage Air kit for my Dads Camaro a while back but it did not come with the air compressor connections. It just has a block off plate. Ive tried to do some research on where to get these connections but have come up short. From what I know its a Sanden SD-7 compressor. If you guys know where to get them let me know. Thanks!

Here is a pic of the compressor/block off plate;

Look at the March P418 and see if that works in your situation? I've usually seen those compressors mounted with the fittings pointing up, not to the side as in your application, so it might not work. Plus, I have no idea what I am talking about.

2X on the compressor fittings. They need to be within 45 degrees of vertical.

Hi Brian,

I assume by Vintage Air kit you mean the A/C system minus compressor. The accessory drive you show appears to be a Wegner (which is compatible with the rest of your Vintage Air system). The adapter fittings for the SD7b10 compressor are included with our Front Runner accessory drives and are compatible with our hose kits. We stock two styles of fittings that will fit the compressor on your accessory drive. The standard adapters that ship with our Front Runners are PN 045008-VUR and 045010-VUR for unpolished and 045011 and 045012 for the polished version. These fittings are on page 65 of our current catalog here (http://www.vintageair.com/2012catalog/2012%20VintageAir%20Catalog%20Final%20WEB%20%28Pag e%2065%29.pdf). The upgrade fitting is on page 59 of our current catalog here (http://www.vintageair.com/2012catalog/2012%20VintageAir%20Catalog%20Final%20WEB%20%28Pag e%2059%29.pdf) and is part #242310 or 242311. They're all in stock.

Thanks for posting this thread! I also have a Wegner kit but I haven't installed it yet; I didn't realize that the compressor mounts with the ports pointing to the side like that, but that makes sense. In that regard, the March P418 would not work, I don't think, because it would wrap all of the way around and the outlets would be pointing straight at the engine (points 180* from port surface). The Vintage Air unit (342310 & 342311), on the other hand, does a nice 90* change, so that would be perfect for this install. Saved me some embarrassment and a product return!
