At the risk of sounding ungrateful to Lancair, the
Mike Custard A/C install can be duplicated by acquiring an underdash add-on A/C
unit for an old car. You will have to figure out hose lengths and get a local
hose complany to swage on the fittings. Mount the unit high about the rear seat.
Stick the condenser (from JC Whitney) in the back. Make sure it has a fan, and
build a fiberglass shroud if needed. A drier can be stuck anywhere.
The engineering is no big deal. Locate the big
pieces, then make your mountings. For the drip drain, take a piece of 1/4"
aluminum tubing thru the pressure vessel into the wheel well. Crush the end and
drill it out to about 60 thousandths. That's the end.
Marv and I figured all this out installing our
Custard AC. Yes, it was nice to have some of those parts pre-aggregated. But it
shouldn't be a large job.

Hi
I'm looking for a ac condenser for a
IV-P. Also any other parts that can be used to install air in a IV-P. I
have the compressor, and mounting bracket.
Thanks
Mark
