Then with the reverse flow setup someone could provide those temp numbers.
In this case, the rear cond. should be cooler by the amount of heat removed by the front cond.
So how much cooler air is the engine getting? 5 degrees or 40 degrees change ????
Will it make a difference in oil temps?
We have heard all the talk and theories, the data will show.
Well I was not going to get involved but ,...show the data.

I believe You would need for a proper valid test of comparative analysis at least 4 simultaneous temperature readings on the condensers at the same time , including simultaneous high side and low side gas pressures, simultaneous engine rpm, and resulting simultaneous air vent temperatures, simultaneous evaporator temperature @ the same exact time for the static test, followed by the same monitoring setup on an extended driving test.
Not to mention an integrated DATA LOGGER
Good Luck getting this from a DIY'er
DIY'ers are not laboratory testing facilities, so you're asking A LOT
