Sanden air compressor bracket
Hi I have a 1978 F100 V8 Cleveland 351.
I want to mount an AC air compressor.
Does any body know if I can
1. mount the bracket to the cylinder head bolt holes on the end of the cylinder head.
2. Use mild steel to make the bracket. (I am thinking of expansion of dissimilar metals. I don't want to crack the cylinder head). Has anyone used mild steel.
Thanks,

Elongate the bracket's holes if you're that concerned.

Thanks Guys
Hi, I hoped I was overthinking it.
Your answers make me feel more comfortable.
Nothing worse than doing something thinking your doing right to find out otherwise. Thanks BGF100.
