ICT Billet A/C Bracket Install & Review 551494-3

December 15, 2016 1950 Chevy Truck, Banner, How To, Product Review

We bought an ICT Billet A/C Bracket part# 551494-3 and installed iton a 5.3 Vortec LS engine.

The kit was great but unfortunately I did not measure where my inner fender wells would line up and when I went to install them the 508 style compressor hits.

A quick call into ICT Billet and I found option number two, a part number 551352-3 which seems to have better clearance but they only issue is I now need to use a mini style Sanden 7176 compressor.

The good news is ICT Billet is willing to help us out on a return based on my application error 🙂
