What air conditioner setup are you using? I couldn't see anything about it in the build, maybe I just missed that part.

It seems as though very few of us 67-72 guys are brave/dumb enough to have gone to the turbos, I saw exactly one at the C10 Nationals in Salt Lake City this past summer. I also have yet to see anything over 6 lbs of boost driving around, but that lights up the tires through 2nd and 3rd. Tons of fun!
My AC is basically all vintage AC but I made my own lines and used a factory low mount GM compressor. It blows 40 degree air even when it’s extremely hot outside. It may be possible to get a little colder with some freon quantity tuning… I had to guess at that since I didn’t use their compressor and lines.
