You might want to hold off putting on the adapter fittings on until you talk with whoever is going to fill it with 134 for you. My HVAC buddy did it for me and his gear had the old fittings, so just filled as is.
Forgot to add, you need to do the o-rings as well, the AC guys I talked with just prior to doing the cruiser, when I converted my old '85 bmw from R12 to 134, said the 134 would go right past the old R12 o-rings. Much smaller molecules apparently. I called BS, but they said true. Check to see if you've got green o-rings or if they are original black.
