Low port adaptor issues

trying to Do a retro fit from r12 to r134 on A 92 firebird v6. I'm having issues finding an adaptor that fits the low port (or what I believe it is). I'm I right in that the high port is on the accumulator and the low is just to left? If so, please direct where ton find the right adaptor. If not, please direct me to the correct locations or each port.

Thanks

B

Oreilly sells an R-12 to R134a adapter kit. part # VA-LH11 if I am not mistaken. I am trying to picture where the ports are. It is dark outside and I dont know off hand.

Yep, Oreillys, advance, autozone, napa, etc. They all sell a conversion adapter kit. Get the one for GM. The kit is $13. It is what I used.

The low side is on the accumulator, the high side is on the hard line coming from the condenser to the evaporator.
