LarryBible,
It was deleted by me. The dimensions that I posted were for the GM/AC Delco/Harrison/Delphi/etc series compressors in the R4/A6/H6 models with O ring manifold seals. Since I then realized that it was your 300E with a Nippondenso compressor that was at issue, I retracted the post, since my posted dimensions were of no value.
