126 AC compressor conversion

Does anybody have information on a kit to replace the old R4 AC compressors with something more reliable? I tried to order the Klima Design Works kit but apparantly they are reworking their products and the kit isnt available.

Rollguy's got a kit to upgrade to the sanden compressor... browse around here a while, and you'll find his threads... pretty much any thread on a/c has posts from him on it.
