Pegasus racing sells a unit that is driven by an electric motor much like a home refrigerator.
No engine mounted components needed. This must be what is used for AC in race cars. Anyone have experience with this ? |

To run on 12 volts, these compressors have to draw way too many amps to work easily in our application. It would be great to be able to simply have the condenser, compressor, and minimal hose runs from the front trunk to the dash, but we're not quite there yet. As I'd love to put AC in my 914-6 conversion car, I've been following these compressors for quite some time.
