Help wanted for install new engine and tranny

[wayne970]

I'm working on a 70 cuda, it had a 318 and 904 which i sold and built a new 340 and 727. The motor had a/c, cruise etc. Took pics before i took it out and lost the pics. Could any body send me a pick of car with a small block that has the original a/c unit. I'm confused where exactly everything bolts up and expecially because this engine has an elderbrock intake and not the original. Also if i reinstall the factory a/c unit will i be able to add a shaker set up to it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Shaker, not without a lot of modifying (read cutting).

From what I've learned, the Shaker hood option at the factory deleted the A/C option. Many people have found they can add a shaker hood to A/C cars without too much heartache. The only issue (other than it may not be original) is the shaker base plate bangs into the A/C compressor, because the comp sits so high. But only by... an inch or so, if I recall correctly. Many have finessed their shaker setups on A/C engines.
