I really like the subaru conversions being done here lately.

Got me wondering how hard it would be to adapt the subaru AC components to a 914.

I realize that new barrier hoses will be needed because of the length.

The ac console may not fit either.

Where does the AC compressor sit on the motor and would it fit in the 914 engine bay?

Thanks,

John

Thanks for all the info, that is helpful.

I forgot about the r134 switchover. That happened in 1996, right?

My idea was to buy a complete, wrecked subaru and use the engine and all the
air conditioning parts. Get new barrier hoses to deal with the front engine versus
mid engine issue.

So I would need to find a subaru model year after the r134 switch.

Gilmore enterprises also looks like a good bet.
