Has anyone shown this to Leland yet???? It would look great on his old "ricer racer" car!

Hey Mark:
Speaking of a/c, did you get yours sorted out? Not that it is as essential in your current home! Griffiths has a feature on their website called "Mr Ice Project" where you fill out a questionaire and they send a recommendation to you. Mine was $2K and that did not include a new compressor! I guess summer isn't THAT hot around here..

For a nice clean installation, maybe this will fit under the turbo tail?

I think the problem would be that the airflow would be backwards. It would also dump it's waste heat into the engine compartment. It COULD be fit under the whale tail, but the lid shocks would also fit the front suspension.
The only real problem I see would be designing and routing the condensate drain hose.

Too bad I don't own a turbo, otherwise we would have to give this a try.

I did have it blowing 39 degree air with Freeze 12 but lost an expansion valve. I'm going to add a front fender condensor with fan and delete the one in the engine compartment sometime this year. |
