The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network - View Single Post - Stock AC? or Vintage Air? That is the question!

So my 1970 c10 has factory air, works well, and already has a Vintage Air (VA) compressor instead of a stock one...

I have noticed many folks here have VA... Is that because you did not have air to begin with? Or swapped out the original for VA because of .... ?

Is VA better than factory air? I like the fact that VA gets deleted from the engine compartment, and I can smooth out the firewall and delete all the holes.

Anyone have any pros and cons??
