Anyone using Vintage Air A/C Solutions?

Hi all,

I've been reading about various a/c systems for awhile. I've just learned that Vintage Air took over a company called "A/C Solutions" in March of this year, and they are offering a kit for the 3.2 cars, which is available from our host:

https://www.pelicanparts.com/More_Info/ACSSC91132KIT.htm?pn=ACS-SC-911-32-KIT&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=22208005432&gclid=Cj0KCQiAoZDJBhC0ARIsAERP-F_H1SaMn7CFN29sQG3Tr0cRcuE45iuCqYsrmDbu-6Y_TYbCQdIWIbIaAoZ9EALw_wcB


I know that lots of people here have installed the Griffiths system. I've searched this forum but haven't found any mention of this system. Has anyone here tried A/C Solutions? If so, I'd appreciate hearing what your experience was. Thanks.

Buddy of mine uses them for his BMWs and is very happy. Also if it’s the same company a vintage air, they are huge in the American Classic car space... Looks like the parallel flow rear condenser might be a game changer.. interested to hear experiences but I think they just started listing the condensers only a few months ago.

Years ago I bought mine from Retroair which was absorbed by Vintage Air I think.
What I noticed about this unit is that it does not come with a new evaporator and several other parts. They say to use your existing parts from your 40 year old car??
I think evaporator and condenser along with barrier hoses and compressors have improved a lot over the last 40 years so I would do more research on this.
You can check out my old thread from 10 years ago on my install:

I had their rear condenser installed this summer, it is a huge upgrade from the factory unit.
