Default Replacement AC/compressor braket after header install

Someone posted this the other day, I could not find it. I am thinking of re-installing all the AC stuff and painting the car before I sell it. I have a couple of paint jobs lined up so I may not have to sell the car. But until I see some vehicles and cash I have to keep moving in the sell mode. I put headers on the car and I need a bracket to install my compressor. Is there one out in the market or does this need to be fabricated??? I also changed my springs lastnight lowered the car about 3 inches,, looks a lot better.
Thanks
Bob

Hey Bill
It rides smoother,, the springs I had under it were very stiff. Now the front tires are almost even with the fender wells. Thanks for the info I'm gonna dig out my Jegs book now.
