best direct fit A/C Condenser out there?
I want to replace all my A/C components with the Texas summer coming up. Everything is readily available to replace except the condenser... I haven't really seen anyone that was a direct fit replacement for our cars.
Any recommendations?

The only one I've found so far in stock is from Original Air:
https://www.originalair.com/86-91-ca...-parallel-flow
It's also available in their upgrade kit. I'd be curious to know about alternatives but I've got a feeling they're all going to be in the $300-$350 range.

The Spectra?? brand is supposed to be a good one. Its under $100 but seems its hard to come by sometimes

Or, if you are replacing everything anyway, you could go with a whole new upgraded system designed for the Camaros with less HP draw, can spin up to 6,000 RPM's and is 134a.

So in taking apart the old fittings to the Accumulator, I found the O-Rings were smashed and cut because they weren't the correct size. Anyone know where to get the proper O-rings for the whole system? Whenever I try and pick O-Rings from a master kit they are always a bit off and end up not sealing correctly.

I bought just the two orings I needed at the dealer. $3. Auto parts has a box full, just match them up. Or
