Other places have rebuilts but don't say if they will work with R134. Can one of you AC guys give me a quick course in compressor technology? . Also, since I have the whole car torn apart, I want to flush the system and lines. What should I use?

I got my brand new AC compressor from Advance AutoParts over the counter, no need to order and wait for it to be shipped, for under $150 + core.... newly manufactured GM R4 compressors are rated for R134a, I believe, since R12 is already rare, but my AC is charged with R12, and it's perfect, nowhere near R134a.
I would also suggest that you flush the line and install a new drier and expansion valve.
Good luck with your project!
