Fwd: Saab AC for 95/96 V4 models

Re: Saab AC for 95/96 V4 models

You folks that want the V4 A/C unit. You will need to install a larger radiator. The A/C unit on my 67 Monte V4
has a Sonett III radiator. The A/C unit was a dealer installed kit. The kit also included a steel timing gear
set . Many techs of the day didn't bother pulling the timing cover to install the new gear set.A company back
in the day made the kit for various cars,I think the name was Comfort Aire??
The York piston compressor is a very standard unit,but it uses alot of power.My car would slow down when it
engaged. My thought was to adapt a more modern swash plate compressor from a recent Ford.Better flow and
needs less power.
