Bumping this up. Swapping my 6cyl into a new chassis that has more features than mine and researching a couple things.

My current swapped car has no AC with all lines removed. I'd really like to keep the AC in the next car, there's a couple instances when I'd love having it.

From the above, it sounds like the common method to retain AC with a swap is to get the AC compressor from a 6cyl? Do they vary between the 6cyl and 4cyl, or is it a different mounting bracket only?

I've already found that retaining cruise control requires the 6cyl actuator, but haven't dug up anything on retaining AC yet.
