I am currently doing the 6-bolt in a 2g swap. My mechanic was telling me that the ac compressor in the 1g is located behind the block, but in the 2g it is located in front of the block. I was wondering which compressor (1g or 2g) should I use and where it should be mounted. Has anyone with a 2g with a 6-bolt run in to the same problem? I would assume I want the 1g compressor and relocate it to the 2g location in front of the block since the condensor is also there. Any input is greatly appreciated.
 
you sure that your not thinking of the power stearing pump, on my 2g i have the ac compressor between the engine and the firewall.
 
1g AC compressors and 2g AC compressors are located in the same place. Both are located on the back driver side of the block. I just did a 6bolt swap and the 2g compressor bolted right up without any problems. I would have someone else do it as that mechanic is either:

A. Trying to sell you something.

B. A goon and has no idea what he is talking about.

I have been helping with the above mentioned swap and its a PIA. Anyway, your mechanic is a moron and I wouldn't trust him to change my oil. I hate when people comment just to say something instead of just saying "I dont know". All the accesories are in the same place for both cars. There are small differances that I wont get into, but there are no worries in your situation.
