Steve,The AC compressor adapter should be the same as for a Mustang as they used the same compressor originally.For coolant filter try here Gano Auto Coolant Filter Company I hear bad things about the plastic housed ones being easily broken so maybe go for aluminum or brass.
I don't see where anyone has them for 5/8" hose but you could probably make up one using some wire mesh as a filter element.
Good luck,Forest
PS. I hear that running Evaporust through the cooling system cleans out a lot of stuff.

Hey! I'm back!
Working on 74 now, taking care of niggly things......and have some
questions...hopefully simple.
1) are the rotary AC pump adapter brackets the same as the ones you
would get for a Mustang/Ford conversion??? I have a spare
bracket....no pump at the moment. Pantera East had an
aluminum....but not sure if Pat is still selling them.
2) I spent dinosaurs share (big dino...) of yesterday flushing out my
under car tubes and heater core of smegma and large chunky
things...... I know there is a serviceable see thru cone style
filter for the 1-3/8" hoses to the radiator, but is there a similar
device for 5/8" heater hose????
I think my engine is packed full of potential little problems related
to plugging up passageways....and until I can pull motor and give it
the full "unpack the water passages treatment" I want to prevent a)
plugging up the radiator, and b) plugging up the heater core. B
already happened.....and was a bugger to remedy, but A) is
suspect.......15Kish on a new radiator...... One of my next tasks it
to pull it and flush it.....as trying to do it in car with position of
tanks is likely to do jack bananas.....nada.
Thanks a heap!
Steve

Steve,
The AC compressor adapter should be the same as for a Mustang as they
used the same compressor originally.
For coolant filter try here [1]Gano Auto Coolant Filter Company I hear
bad things about the plastic housed ones being easily broken so maybe
go for aluminum or brass.
I don't see where anyone has them for 5/8" hose but you could probably
make up one using some wire mesh as a filter element.
Good luck,
