It retails at approx $ 1400 but purchasing it from TCM thru Lancair, the price dropped to $ 800+ The good news is that the bracket/clutch/idler/etc is designed for the engine. It is used on the Malibu. In fact, if you look in the back of your TCM parts manual, you will find the complete info on it. Personally, I would be very leary of hanging any after market stuff on that expensive engine. BTW, I'm not too smart. I ordered the compressor from the TCM dealer at the same time I ordered the clutch. Later found out that the same SANDIN compressor cost about 1/2 at the local car parts store : - ( Good luck with your design.
