I see they removed the Schrader valve from the factory fitting, then screwed this fitting on; it contains it's own Schrader valve. The low side of the gauge set will connect to it, not the high side.
What I need to know is: what size is the OEM fitting on the condenser, then I can ask for the correct adaptor/test port.

In this case, couldn't you purchase another Low Side hose and connect it to the condenser and the high side on your gauge manifold?
Just a thought.
