Interesting, but I think I'll just go with a new one.

just did mine with the kit from Griffiths. Easy to do. Biggest PITA is just getting the Compressor in and out of the car. f¥<K. I guess I will See how long it holds up...if at all. It appears my front seal was shot according to the UV light...lots of oil on the wick

I got so sick of the mounting procedure for these damn compressors I swear to have the mounting bolts chamfered before install.

It makes lining up the bolt holes a million times easier. I waste like 2 hours just trying to get the damned thing lined up just so.

It goes in in like 5 minutes with chamfered bolts

I struggled to get the pulley off mine and was worried about damaging the rubber doughnut so found a puller tool similar to the NLA Porche one and it was easy after that.
