Air con bracket

Post by Pete Boole »

Hi Guys

I'm after a 912 aircon compressor bracket from a late car - can anyone help? It's part no A912E2276F (you can buy them new but I'm trying to spend less!)

Thanks

Pete

Hi Pete,
I think I got mine second hand from PNM, he may have another.
Failing that I seem to remember Gary Kemp (Lotus 900 engine guru) had one when I enquired.
Good luck with the search.
Andy.

Thanks Andy - I'll try Gary (PNM/SJ/Lotusbits don't have any - other than new ones).

Who ever bought the 912 engine off ebay last week has got one! And as the compressor was missing he probably doesnt need it

I know - if it was in good nick it was a bargain. I'm also looking for some flat-topped cam housings as well - if you hear of any :wink:

I'll have a look through the shed at the weekend. there's a chance one may be in there, so it's a matter of that combined with the chance of being able to search without being clouted on the head by falling Lotus parts.

Pete, I have a piece of ally plate which would enable you to make a copy out of it. How good are your metal work skills? :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Any luck finding a bracket in the shed Andy?
