Hey this question is for those that have put an LS engine in their rigs or general mechanics. The PO installed a LS engine but did not install the AC. So I know I need a Chevy compressor to fit the engine but from there is where I have my questions regarding equipment replacement. The PO left the dryer and all the hoses in a crate in the back of the rig and the condenser is installed in the front. I do not know the condition that the parts are in. So the three options I am looking at are:
Option 1 I use these old parts and use a converter fitting to fit the Toyota system to the Chevy compressor
Option 2 start fresh with a new Chevy compressor and new Toyota dryer, hoses and condenser and just mate the Chevy compressor using converter fittings to the rest of the new system
Option 3 start fresh with a new Chevy compressor, dryer, hoses and condenser and just mate that to the internal parts of the ac system with converter fittings.
Really haven’t priced things out yet just looking for ways the community would skin this cat. Also I live in Houston we going without ac is not an option. We have been over 100 for over a month now with no relief in sight.
