Which AC compressor for r134 AC?

[leddzepp]

I use an A10, aluminum replacement for the A6. Factory AC in my 68. No leaks, no belt squealing, been working great for about 4 years now. I used R12 as original. I will never use an A6 again.

Who made your compressor and the part number? When I bought mine a few years ago I understood I was buying an A10 but the manufacturer's description says it's an A6. Mine is a 4 Seasons 58098.

I have been the A6 aluminum replacement (four seasons) for years. Works fine. But, it came out with the engine to replaced with a LM7 LS engine...switching to R134a and using the Denso LS compressor. Going to try and sell the engine/700R4 as a package including the compressor.

What size engine?

350. She's tired and fouls the #8 spark plug. But, no unusual noises, idles fine, and decently smooth when the plug is clean. I suspect bad valve stem seals. She is not a HP monster.

Thanks for the response. I'm looking at replacing or rebuilding the 400 in my truck. That would be a pain to adapt.
