Default A/C Re-install Questions

I Purchased a 92 Fox Body that was an original 4 cyl car and had been converted to a Carbureted 5.0...The 5.0 engine combination that was used, has the alternator mounted on the Drivers Side, not any problem until you want to put A/C back on the car...Also all of the A/C and Wiring Components under the hood had been removed from the car when I purchased it...All of the under dash parts were intact and the Evaporator was sealed and has been pressure tested and will be properly flushed out... Now I want to add A/C back on the car...Too much problem to try and remount every thing like a 5.0 is supposed to be have, so I have purchased a Bracket Kit to mount a A/C Compressor on the passenger side of a 289, 5.0 or 351 engine...This Bracket Kit is designed for mounting a Sanden Type, 508 or 510 Compressor...I have also bought a Compressor, Hoses, Multiple Fittings, Condenser, Receiver Drier, and a Trinary Switch...I am not a A/C gut but a pretty good wrench...I will mount and plumb it all myself, and then take it to a Professional to have the system evacuated and checked for leaks, and charged up with R134a...Hopefully all of the wiring inside will work the A/C switch functions...

1...Are the High Side and Low side Hoses going to be different sizes...
2...Does anyone know what color and the wiring from the wiring harness to hook up to the Compressor...
3...Are there any relays needed in the system...
4...What else should I need to do or look out for...
