Before you lay that heavy AC compressor (with hoses still attached) across the top of the engine, pop the plastic vacuum fitting out of the valve cover so it doesn't get crushed.
The AC compressor comes right out after removing two bolts up top and one bolt at the bottom of the bracket. That bottom bolt is behind the alternator. If you're lucky, someone has slotted the bottom of the AC bracket and you can just loosen the bottom bolt. If you're unlucky, it's worth it to grab a hacksaw (or fancy tool) and add a slot to the bracket after you get it out.
Also, the alternator mount bushings are likely worn. Two where the adjuster arm attaches to the block and two where the alternator body pivots on the main bracket. Easy to replace. (The latter wear and and allow the alternator to become misaligned - sometimes visible as different tensions in the two belts.)
