Researching installing an AC into my bronco. anyone recommend against this due to the engine size? I found this install kit online:
1966 - 1977 Bronco Air Conditioning System | 66 - 77 Ford Bronco AC

thanks!

I would talk to them to be sure about the compressor mounts/pulleys. Same era Mustangs came with a 200ci and air conditioning, so it should be doable. Power wise, I really don't know how much it would affect you. They do make a good system though.

2X gfw. The 'stang had the engine and the stuff should fit, not hurt power (I did not look @ the link). I have loded up the front of my 170 with plow pump and other crap so there's room there, no power loss. If it's Vintage Air their in cab stuff fits too. Go fer it!
(with communication to the co. about it first).
Over on cb R plenty of guys who have em to talk w/1st as well.
