Hi Guys, I have my Chevelle converted to R134a with the replacement POA, Sanden Compressor, stock Condenser, & new Dryer. In 100 deg. temperatures, the best I can get on the fwy is 55 deg. out of the center vent. At idle, 925 rpm, it reads up to 65 deg. out of the center vent in 100 deg. heat.
When starting the cold Chevelle in 90 degree weather in the shade at 1400 rpm, here are my r134a readings with no fan upfront. I am running the stock clutch fan. What do you think about these numbers ?
At cold startup to around 10 min. to warm up.

Of course, the air in the car is much colder at first startup and the air gets warmer as the Chevelle warms up.
I am thinking I need a new parallel flow condenser from original air to get lower temperatures. What do you think ? Thanks for any advice.
