I got an original hemi K frame, thanks

Wanted excellent used or nos K frame for 1970 Challenger. Must be very good condition. I'm located in central Fl. Thanks.

R134a is as efficient as R12 if set up correctly. The molecules of R134 are smaller than R12 hence they need to be squeezed tighter at the expansion valve (oriface) to produce the same or better cooling. Also R134 won't push the mineral oil that was used in R12 systems, that's why you must use a...

You will need a expansion valve and drier for 134 . Also the correct oil, I use ester oil, which if you go with the Sanden compressor that what it comes with. The factory condenser and evaporator will work fine in a r134 system. Make sure you use a 6 or 7 blade cooling fan, or better yet electric.

I removed the by pass hose it had been tightened down onto the fitting in manifold, down from 1 in to about 5/8. Really crap work. Anyway I finally found a fitting Latham is 1/2 npt by 1 inch hose. Found on amazon. What I really can't figure is why on this factory mopar manifold it takes 1/2 npt...

Thanks that's a great sey up, but the hose is 1inch both ends. Fitting in manifold is to small.

Just ran into a strange situation. When replacing the by pass hose I found the fitting in the manifold to small. Upon removing the fitting I found the threads were 1/2 npt, they are supposed to be 3/4 npt. By the casting numbers it's a stock 360 intake manifold. It's impossible to find a fitting...
