I’ve had pretty good luck with the OEM style compressor if it’s good or new, it’s also a radial design. The really old cars, (‘70s?), had the huge York piston compressor which was very inefficient. They worked but pulled a lot of power from the engine.

There is a guy on Peachparts who sells a kit with the new mount and hoses. The compressor is off of Ebay. There are Chinese copies of the Sanden compressor. And there is a Utube video that shows that the Chinese ones are the same and all the parts interchange. So it saves a few bucks buying them. I have used two of them with no issues. I now make up my own AC and oil cooler hoses, now that I have the crimper for making them.
