A/C repairs

[1RIPPEN6]

I didn't see where this has been asked. My compressor failed and I have debris through the whole system. I converted to 134a years ago and it worked okay but now I want to change everything to the correct components. I bought a new evaporator and condenser, and neither were correct. The evaporator was about 3/8 too long and the condenser tube wasn't bent right. The tube had a hard 90 bent that would interfere before setting into position. I bought the compressor from Highway Stars but they don't have the condenser or evaporator listed. So, where to a purchase the correct condenser and evaporator that will fit and correct for 134a. TIA

I'm not sure they reproduce the CORRECT evap core for the turbo cars. You can post looking for one in the parts wanted section here though.

As for the condenser I use a Spectra 74013. It's a parallel flow. Good for 134a. The condenser fit in the rubber supports fine. The low & high lines required just a tad of tweaking for a good sealing fit. Nothing major just be gentle.

Thank you, I'll check the condenser out.

If it's apart, feel free to take your old evap core to a radiator repair joint. That's what I did. Had them test it for leaks. Just make sure it's super dry before ya charge.

May be nothing wrong with it. You can also feel free to flush your core out if it doesn't leak.

I just pulled the AC from my car and it was switched to 134A . I never used the AC so I pulled it for more room in the engine bay . I was going to just stash the parts but I don't plan on selling the car or putting it back to stock .
Message me if you are interested in any of the parts .

One more question, I bought an NOS dryer, but was reading the desiccant in the old driers isn't compatible with the 134A?

drier needs to replaced if it was used with r12 due to the incompatability of the 134 , should be no problem with a new NOS
