My 78  never have a generator. I did not want to give up the side storage compartment so I bought a Onan 2800 microlite and mounted it underneath just behind the gas tank. It runs the roof a/c fine. I don't run the a/c with any other big power users like the mw or a toaster, it was a big investment so I like to baby it. If you want to run it all at once you will need a 4000 watt or better and put it in the side box.

The 4k was to big to fit in my 78. I have the 50 gal tank and I had to square it up to get the 2.8k in. A factory 30 gal may give you enough room. I took some pics but have not sent the roll in yet.  Keep me posted and good luck.
