Chris,

Your best bet for a kit is as JHRV8 suggests and going to a modern hot rod source and find something that will fit. 

The first problem will be compressor location which can be rectified by relocating the Passenger side motor mount to the back side of the front cross-member.  These parts originally came as a dealer supplied kit and were later integrated into the factory Jensen GT cross-member.  I have access to three of these cross-members if you need them.

People I know who have done the conversion haven't exacty been happy with the results with exception to having a Defrost capability. 

Under the heading of 'while you are at it', retrofitting a GT dash complete with a/c controls into your JH would look great.  I also have access to a couple of GT dashes if you are interested.
