‘87 Carrera R134A A/C charge capacity

As mentioned in the subject line, I’m looking for the 134a refrigerant capacity for my ‘87 Carrera. It has both a lid-mounted condenser as well as a belly condenser. Any help appreciated.

If belly condensor is the std front condensor: I recently had it refilled with 910gr R134a.

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately, the condenser is aftermarket and the company that manufactured it is out of business.

If it is roughly the same size, then it should be no prob. Normally a filling station will fill by pressure (at idle and at 2000 rpm they checked the high pressure side, target pressure depends on ambient temp). So the exact grams shouldn’t be a problem.
