What would be a fair $ on a complete used dealer installed A/C system, minus the dry rotted lines? Looked all over the net & Evil Bay couldn't really find anything as to a fair current market value.

After years of searching, I've come to the conclusion that there is no easy fix. Clay Perrine's setup looked promising, but the forces are too much for the available bolt locations.
Perhaps someone could come up with a way to turn the compressor from a CV joint (obviously would only work when moving), but otherwise there seems to be no good way without cutting the firewall and limiting the driver's seat travel. The early 911 AC brackets attached to the timing cover 6mm bolts, and also caused problems. These engines were not really engineered for AC back in the day. A V8 or Subaru conversion is probably the best way to AC a 914! |
