Well, my AC died. I suspect it's just a leak somewhere...but I need to charge it up a bit with R134 with dye to find out where. If it turns out the old York compressor is dead...I'd like to use something that weighs less and is more efficient. I know that someone used to make an adaptor bracket to allow me to use a Saden, but for the life of me, I can't find it. I thought it was from IceAC.com but I don't see it there. Anyone know? I had another idea. Early 5Kts have AC Delco compressors, right? Did any of them have the compressor on the lower passenger side? I'd lvoe to use a trusty and cheap GM rotory compressor, prefurably the non-pancake one. I've had GM products and I will say...they have great AC systems, if the Coupe had and AC system HALF as good as the one in either my 78 or 85 Impalas...I'd be dancing in the street. So, anyone care to comment on manybe using the braket from and early 5K? Does it have to come from a turbo? Will it even work? Thoughts?
Thanks,
Dave
