It's me again. I have gotten a little closer with the required parts. Just got in my parallel flow condensor (thanks BobbyK for the link) and a new R-4 compressor. I allready have a new poa elimenator kit, a new thermostatic expansion valve, and a new reciever/dryer. Re-using the evaporator. All that is left is to fab lines and decide if I am going to a Fixed Orifice Tube instead.

Here comes the question:

Where did you get the parts to fab the rigid lines? What size tube? Looks like 2 differant sizes in BobbyK's pic (3rd pic in 21st post). Do you use compression fittings?
Any help appreciated.
