Adding A/C

[hotdog647]

I'm adding air to a 66 New Yorker. The path of least resistance is to add a Vintage Air Gen IV or Southern Air Maxi 5XL evaporator unit with a Sanden compressor and modern condenser. I can see the benefit of the modern compressor and condenser. But looking at the smaller sizes of the heater and A/C evaporator cores I'm wondering if I should think about rebuilding an original box and just upgrading the compressor and condenser. Any ideas about this?

If the car originally with A/C, I would go with the compressor upgrade, a cross flow condenser and new hoses. That is what I did with my 70 300. Bouchillon Performance has all you need for that.

If it didn't have A/C, I'd go with a kit.
