Is it just me, or is this a little close for comfort?
ArcAsylum sub frame and trans mount
AKG 24v swap mounts
E46M3 Compressor
Z3M Radiator
Maybe if it hits it will just grind away a bit of the radiator there? Or should I grind it? Thoughts please!

As you can see with the E46 compressor it's quite tight.

Yeah, I took the photo in the op. ;) I guess the customer had the aluminum radiator in his Amazon cart for later and his girlfriend bought it for him, otherwise we were going to run the stocker.

So how in the hell did you guys fit the high pressure hose on the S54 compressor!? I’ve been bending this thing eveywhch way and it is not allowing a good angle for the line. Even had to grind material off the back of the compressor fitting just to fit it between the compressor and frame.
About to make it difficult and machine a new less bulky fitting and have the AC shop braze a new pipe...

For reference I am running the Z3M S54 3 core radiator with the M50/S50 a/c compressor and have just enough clearance.
