I know that Roger Sears does however he's not a computer guy and therefore doesn't come to the site (we've been pushing him for the last couple of years).

Roger Sears has a Vintage Air set up. They provide everything that you'd need for an GM A Body including instructions. Check out their website.

Here's a shot of Roger's setup-under the hood.
I did not photograph it from under the dash.

Roger did a fantastic job with the A/C setup. That is the cleanest install I have ever seen. His system eliminates the blower box under the hood and combines the heat also. He mentioned that the plate at the rear of the compressor was a certain part that made the two connecting hoses point down. That really cleaned up the right side of the engine bay.
