im from the US and am swaping the 3800 from a 99 camaro into my 80, i recently have been looking for a new bracket to hold the AC compressor and realized that the Holden 3800s have what appear to be perfect placement, was wondering if anyone had pictures of the front of the motor with all the accessories on it, thanks for your time

dont know what car this is but im looking for more pics with this one http://gmv6.org/gallery/S10_3800_Swa...ay7%28M%29.jpg it looks like the AC would go above the oil filter rather then next to as it is in my camaro

The photo did not show up??

On the photo I loaded up the big black pullie is for the power steering, the A/C unit is on the bottom right - half cut off.

no it showed up that wasnt the motor i was looking for tho (gmv6.org/gallery/S10_3800_Swap/engineBay7%28M%29.jpg) the one im looking for idk how to link it from google images

[3.8f-bodies]

ok it worked i tihnk you just hafta copy paste

[88GreenVN]

Just put that link in it worked...

Yep above the oil filter by the look of it.

The power steering pump is above the oil filter. the A/C is on the lower right of the picture - the driver's side for you. It's worth pointing out that the pic is of an early Commodore V6, I think you would call it a series 1. 1999 will be our Ecotec - from 1995-2003 (I think) here. The power steering pump is mounted lower down on them I think but the A/C will be in the same place.

[3.8f-bodies]

do you know which motor that is by chance? it looks almost the same as the ones in the camaro but the ac is moved and if i had that braket my swap would be so much smoother

[88GreenVN]

No - I cant tell what the motor is in your photo.

[3.8f-bodies]

ok thank you for your time if you happen to come across one anytime a pic and name and what not would be much appreciated thanks for your time

[3.8f-bodies]

idk the motor i have up looks to me like a 3800 Series two (GM motor) with a different braket but i was told it was a holden 3800 dont know what one tho

[Cheap6]

Looks like Ecotec with the US spec. inlet manifold. Look familiar?
