So, I can pretty-much assume that nobody has purchased the $3,000 kit from you-know-who.
Like I said in my original post, $3,000 for an air conditioning kit seems way out of line to me. A Sanden compressor costs around $200. A condenser also costs around $200. The hardware and lines will cost around $100. So where is the other $2,500 going?
You left out a few things. Compressor mount, belt, pulley, evaparator, housing for compressor and fan, relay and wires, etc. Lots of stuff. Plus I would imagine you know who would want to make a few bucks on all this.. Maybe you could provide the kits a lot cheaper.
That said, i think i have a post from years ago describing a system i put in mine.
Southern ROds sells the parts you need except the pulley and compressor mount. They have a small evaporator that fits nicely. You have to make compressor mount, condensor mount and shroud, get lines made, etc. I think i ended up spending 800 or so for parts. I had an old mount. JoeO
