Spectra Premium 7-3231 AC Condenser?
Lots of talk on Spectra Premium AC condenser 7-3231. However, it seems there are no online sources that carry this model.
In fact one source said it was discontinued by Spectra.
However Spectra's website still lists it in their catalog?
Anyone purchased one recently? from where?
Anyone know of alternates?

Re: Spectra Premium 7-3231 AC Condenser?
I just saw a YouTube video from car wizard that came out this week who needed a new condenser for a customers IROC and had the same trouble. Apparently no one makes them anymore...However O’reilly's called up their manufacturer who said they can make one but it will take like a week. If no luck there best bet is do a request here on parts wanted, search eBay, or a third gen specific used parts place but I get wanting something new for this particular part.

I put in a complete new system from what is Original Air (now), It was a nice system and everything fit together great. They show the part is still available stand alone, but is showing up to 30 days on shipping due to covid. If you don't want to wait, I'm sure there is plenty of used ones laying on this site, I still have my old complete system just sitting in a box for what it's worth.

Thanks for the info. I will check out Original Air.
I saw there was this recent thread, which is helpful.

I have a stock condenser from my '91 GTA if you are looking for one.
