Sanden conversion or RV2 Rebuild?

[SeaFuse]

Have a 72 small block Fury with original but partially removed RV2 system. Condenser and Evaporator in good shape. Compressor and clutch no good. What's people's options on rebuilding the RV2 system or converting to Sanden? Personally, most classic cars I've been in with the popular SD508 compressor seem marginally cooled at best. I'd want to look into a larger compressor (which means new mounting most likely), larger condenser but not sure much can be done with evaporator in stock location. The RV2 on 134 has always impressed me - my Imperial was like a meat locker with it in the hot summer. Guy below on eBay seems to be reputable rebuilder. Thoughts?

I like my rebuilt RV2 compressors, but others like the Sanden. Sanden is certainly more available these days...

You can go several ways. Rebuild it, replace it with an R-12 Sanden compressor or with an R-134a compressor. Lots of pluses and minuses for each.

i bought my rebuilt RV2 from this guy. The AC is running perfectly and blowing COLD (on 134 conversion) for 4 years now. Had no problems whatsoever, and no leaks. The system is holding charge, and no refill required as of yet. I paid 380 usd incl tax & shipping.

I have a 71 Newport 2dr 383 auto.
