<div>Just keep on mind that the T4 was used in the Bus, 1976 912, and the 914.
<div><br>
</div>
<div>In each of those installations, the AC robbed HP, and put additional stain on the engine.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I have a complete set up for the 914. I just can't go through with cutting holes in a rust free body. And yes AC would be nice in the desert. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>When did we get so spoiled that we always desire AC?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Even at 100 plus degrees, there is something about cruising with the windows down with the warm breeze flowing through.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>On a side note. I was really disappointed not to been able to attend the Invasion. I really wanted to meet you all. Only five hours from Zion NP, my home.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The Navy called and had some issues that I needed to attend to.</div>

I've had a couple replies and think I've found one, thanks.<br>
<br>
Yes, R134 conversion and all new components to be used, really only the <br>
evaporator is what I plan to reuse. And the compressor will be fitted <br>
to a 2.3L Type 4...<br>
