Ok So it's been awhile since I've done an update, so here goes:

So first my a/c hasn't worked...and being in Tejas...yeah that's bad juju....so started out thinking maybe it just needed a recharge....no such luck. Recharge AND a new compressor:

Oring was smoked:


@ SVOC headquarters:


So we recharged it, blew cold air....awesome I have FRIGGIN A/C...YAY!!!! not so fast....
driving the car on the freeway with the a/c on max, engine temp started climbing....WTF.......oh man....I have a new water pump....electric fan that would cool hell....ok well it was the original OEM 23 y/o radiator....

So swapped out the radiator....to no avail....still the same problem. Car would sit and idle at the light fine, could run it for 40 min.....no problems....with the a/c on max. As soon as I started driving....cancel Christmas the temp would start climbing. So a good friend of mine mentioned to me that my deflector wasn't on the car, and that helps deflect air inbetween the radiator and evaporator. SO I fabbed my own....plastic OEM one kinda sucks:






after the install....BAM no problems. Fixed it like a champ.

Finally got around to picking up a 65mm EGR spacer to match the 65mm t/b. Was having a little bit of a stumbling issue...thought maybe this was it. Had also found a leak in the gasket (between intake and EGR spacer)



Nice color of baby **** brown wouldn't you say?


Done!
