What's needed for a Sanden 508 conversion?
 

The R4 compressor on my '85 C10 with 350 SBC has broken, and the previous owner has done a half hearted job converting it to r134. I'm thinking of getting a Sanden 508 and appropriate mounting bracket to replace the R4. What style connectors and drier would I need to retain usage of the OEM style condenser and evaporator? Thanks.

I was going to buy from that company, but then I found out they charge $65 sales tax and $130 shipping.

Edit: It looks like shipping is only $42 on the Stage 1 kit. Does anyone have any experience dealing with this company?

I'm looking at the same options here too, so following this post.

Yup me too!

I'm going with Alan Grove bracketry, and I have the compressor, and I can make the hoses, but is the factory clutch cycling switch going to work?

This thread interests me. I have a Dirty Dingo compressor and brackets to go on the 95 GMC, and would like to do a Sanden on the 83 as well, but wasn't sure what was available for the 83. Other than the V belt to Serpentine, any other differences?

You don't have to go serpentine, I'm going with a Sanden 6664, which is double V-groove.
