After some failed attempts searching google and multiple forums, I'm gunna ask the crowd here. I'm putting AC back in my C4, but can't seem to find the compressor manifold for purchase anywhere. I have the lines ready to go, and new gaskets coming in. Everything else is easily acquired, but that compressor manifold seems impossible to find. Any one have one to spare or point my in the right direction,

Thanks!

What do you mean by compressor manifold? The section between the main compressor body and fitting on the end of the refrigerant hoses?

Vancleef

Yes! That piece exactly. Its for an 89 C4.

Silly question, What happened to the original? Did you accidentally send it in with your core?

When I bought the car, the previous owner removed it for the track, and didn't provide it in the sale. I got the lines and all other components, but no compressor. I'm usually okay with windows down all year, but this summer has a lot of 90-100+ days and im slowly cooking ha!

Sent you a PM.

I totally understand. I am finishing up installing a new evaporator in my car.

So I found a manifold that fits, but requires new lines to be fabricated. I don't mind doing that, but does anyone know of an adapter to bring the #12 hardline down to a #10. Specifically the hardline that ends in the driver side rear quarter panel. It seems #10 line is much more common today.

I want to add that I believe its a M27x2 to M22x1.5 adapter that would be needed, but im not having much luck on locating one.
