57 Condenser

[cwayne]

Hello Everyone! I am currently installing Vintage Air in my 57. Thus far I have purchased everything that goes under the dash. I already have the Sanden Chrome plated compressor installed. My question. I see where quite a few people comment on overheating with the air on. I installed a multi blade flex fan and I understand a shroud will help. Just gotta find one that will work with my Alumitech Wizard radiator. I contacted Vintage Air and was going to purchase there condenser but I did not want the one in there kit. It is painted black. They offer one that is not but one has to make it work. Bend pipes?? Will not just bolt in. Well ... Can some one share with me what would be the largest most efficient condenser one can use. How it is mounted. What plumbing scheme. Does PRC have something?? How well it worked. Vintage air suggested that I contact: becool.com This is out of my league $$$. If someone has pictures that would be great. Attached are a few pictures. I have been to the edge and almost home. My sincere thanks in advance. CWayne

I have a cross flow radiator and have the Vintage Air monster condensor. I mounted it to a sheet metal frame in the mock up in this picture. I plan to make a stainless steel frame. I'm going to use braided stainless lines from the condensor to the compressor and dryer so I can move it out of the way if I need to remove the radiator.
