Default AC Delete and Weltmeister sway bar interfer

Ive got an AC Delete on my car, using Larry's aluminum bracket. When the AC Delete shroud is installed, the front sway bar hits it. If I rotate the shrould more, theres almost no clearance between it and the frame rail and the alt and engine, and its not a straight run at the duct from the bumper. Is this a known/common issue in general, or does the Porsche delete bracket clear this up?



It doesnt hit the mount, the sway bar itself hits the inlet when I try to mount it.

hm, interesting question. i've got the factory a/c delete and will be installing weltmeister sway bars in a few weeks. i'll post my result if i have a problem at that time. i imagine you could rotate the alternator duct around, couldn't you?

ask M758 - i think he's got weltmeister sway bars and a/c delete. not a turbo, though.

I have tried rotating it yes, but that leaves a tiny gap between the inlet and the frame rail, and another tiny one between the alt itself and the oil pan/block so I dont think it would even be possible to tension the belt.

Ill PM him, thanks for letting me know!

well,
I have the welt sway bar and the factory A/C Delete. Not an issue at all.
However I don't run the alternator cooling shroud.
