So what am I lacking?

[derekf]

I freely admit that I don't know a lot about a lot of things, but I know even less about AC.

I have a 69 El Camino that had factory AC.



I'm doing an LS swap and trying to use as much of the donor (2000 Camaro) as possible. This included the AC system; I modified the suitcase to fit the Camaro coil. Unfortunately, the compressor just wasn't going to work with the crossmember and I've shifted that to the Holley mount with a Sanden SD7.

I assumed that I needed lines, a drier, and a trinary switch when I was using the Camaro bits. Now it also becomes clear that the Camaro condensor isn't going to work with this big aluminum radiator either.


So questions:

• Can I use a standard 69 condensor with this or should I shop for an aftermarket one that fits the available space?
• Should I break out the spare suitcase and just use a stock 69 coil too, or does that not work with R134/the SD7?
• On the lines, drier, pressure switch, would the shop that made up my AC lines know what I'd need there or do I need to come in and tell them?
