Default Engine manufacturer?

I picked up a 77 Camaro that has a stroker in it. I'm trying to add a vintage air kit, but need to first figure out what compressor is compatible with the engine. Any tips on how I can figure out who the manufacturer of the engine is so I can determine what compressor is compatible?



Thanks - Jon

Not quite sure what you mean here, Chevrolet would be the manufacturer, the stroker part would be a different crank rods and piston kit for the stock Chevy block typically.
Even a new crate engine would typically be a Chevy block and an AC pump for a Chevy small block 77 Camaro application should be what you need.

The important criteria to know when ordering the AC bracket, is it a
SBC or BBC? does it have a short water pump or long pump? What side do you want the compressor on?
The Vintage Air kit work best with Sanden style compressors, The brackets that we sell are designed to mount Sanden compressors. If you give our sales team a call (210-654-7171)with your the engine criteria above we will set you up with a compressor and compressor bracket that will work with the Vintage Air system.

You can tell by looking at the picture that he has a small block with the long water pump
