Give the folks at Renaire a call.

You don't need a lot of upgrades .

The R134 has smaller molecules which make the system prone to leakage.
Also, runs on higher pressures.

Our A/C works quite well with R-12, but, within system limitation(s),
and evaporator freeze-up can be an issue.

All is stock, plus the additions of the Procooler, and a high flow evaporator.

40F-45F on a 85F day on the freeway.

With these settings.

You may pm me.

Good luck,

Gerry
