Did you convert the a/c to 134a refrigerant?

Yes I did. I sent the original hoses to that outfit in FL and they fitted the original fittings (replated) to the new hoses. They did a great job. I didn't need to do anything to the compressor. I was surprised how well it cools, but then the passenger compartment is half the size of a car.....

The heater will roast you out!

PS: One thing that really surprised me about the ELC was when I put it in the same garage along side my '62 Impala. They're both the SAME length even though the ELC is based on a mid-sized car!
