I picked up a replacement for my 30 year old factory condenser that was beat to hell.

The new condenser was $74 on Amazon. It is still a tube and fin design. The tubing looks nearly identical to the original. However, it looks to have about twice as many fins as the original. By blowing through the condenser, the Spectra does not impede air flow at all, while the original blocked about half of the air blowing through it, which would impede airflow to the radiator as well.

It looks like it will easily outperform the original condenser!

 

Hey,

Know this post is a bit old - did you have any fitment issues w/ the Spectra condenser? I just bought one and the fitting on the condenser for the hose from the compressor is just a hair too small. I even got a new hose assembly and that had the same fitment issue so I think it's the condenser.

Did you have any issues hooking yours up?

Thanks!

 

I installed one in my car also. Drops right in.
