I live in Arizona, home of 120 degree Fahrenheit summers, where it can be over 90 degrees even in winter, so I really, really need air conditioning already (I've suffered through 7 summers and was commuting 1-2 hours each way in heavy traffic at one point for over a year). And not just air conditioning, but GOOD air conditioning. I actually started on upgrading the air conditioning system over 2 years ago, but stopped working on it when I started my last job as I had no time.

I removed the Delco R4 compressor, which has a bad reputation and isn't very efficient. The pulley was seized and had a hole in it.


I bought a Sanden compressor adapter bracket from ROLLGUY on the PeachParts forum. It is very well-made and came with a bracket for supporting the oil cooler hoses.
