I installed 80K resistor pm that sensor between the leads to lower the kicking off temp a little bit. mine was kicking off early.

The earlier cars will NOT work that well once converted since they had the old-school single-circuit fat-tube style condensers and woeful Delco R4 or mediocre Harrison A6 compressor. The updated '86-91 cars will though due to the upgraded condenser design and Denso compressor. The '88-91 cars got the dual-fan auxiliary fan setup (vs single 16" fan for '86-88, or single 12" for '81-85) that really helps at idle speeds and city traffic too.
