This is the March Ultra system with Vintage Air on my 69. A little on the pricy side but everything does fit. The belts are not correct. I know someone was going to say something about it.

I used ConceptOne Pulley systems on my applications. Here is my Camaro engine picture.

Go to www.conceptonepulleys.com for a looksie. These kits come with high performance water and power steering pumps in the kit. Overdrive pulleys which drive the waterpump and alternator at higher rpms.

Doesn't Vintage Air or Alan Grove have proper pass side compressor brackets and pulleys for 68's?

I have a March Ultra system but mine is the mid-mount system part# 22072. I don't have the a/c in yet but am running it with a shorter belt. It looks nice and was easy to install. It looks like Strick's only the compressor is mounted lower below the alternator on the passenger side.

My sig now has a link to photos of our 69 Camaro. There is a picture with the Frontrunner system installed. The only issue we have is we can not keep the cover on the idler. Otherwise extremely satisfied.

what kind of power steering pump is used with the front runner? meaning does it need to have a romote reservoir or is it attached to the pump itself?

oem GM.. not billet and not bling, but the ratios are right and everything fits.

Power steering pump came from DSE and reservoir is attached to pump.
