I've seen an S13KA compressor on a redtop bracket; the so-called 2-bolt solution. The 2 bolts that don't line up are varying degrees of not-close, IIRC. The S14KA compressor against this redtop bracket is VERY close. I didn't try it, but it looks like a dead bolt on with perfect hole alignment. This "bolt on" ignores the different pulleys that make it actually not work.

I've never seen anything bolt on to a blacktop bracket that wasn't a blacktop compressor.
The S14KA compressor on redtop bracket is what I did then, swap the pulley from an S13 KADE compressor, use the S14 bearing from its pulley, bolts on, all 4 bolts and a/c lines boltup.
