I was going to mention the Parallel flow condenser too but hatzie beat me to it, I highly recommend one. This is the one I was going to use but money ran a little short to permit it and new hoses: http://www.ebay.com/itm/150743405871...84.m1438.l2648
I ran "R152a" refrigerant in mine btw.

You will either need to hack the firewall to fit the A/C box or cut out and weld in the piece from the A/C cab, let me know if you want pictures of that.
