A/C and Alternator to another engine?


Recommended Posts

My parts vehicle (1990 Loyale) has the inboard A/C and my daily driver (1989 GL) has the A/C thats by the battery, the old A/C that was on my GL was made by KIKI DIESEL, thats all i knew, well it was almost impossible to find a replacement but apparently some nissan or something fitted mine so there it is now, my question is, if my A/C or alternator are compatible with this other version of the EA82? and why did subaru make 2versions of how the A/C mounted on the engine? if there is a way to mount these into my other engine? it would be nice to have spares. thanks!

The first pic is factory AC, the second is dealer or aftermarket installed. Yes, you can swap them. All the brackets hoses and bits. You may run into an issue with the rotational sensor on the factory set up, but IIRC, there is a way to bypass it. Someone here will chime in with more knowledge than me on that.
