The "evaportaor" is a completely new device that will make my AC better that
yours, you see...

Yeah, a SECRET GEORGIA device!  It will be tested on the Cruiser to
see if it can combat the heat in these here parts...

I hear that they do all sorts of goofy stuff in Georgia... Wherever
that is...

I've ever heard rumor of some high school kid riding around in an
Orange Stoodeebayker...

And Dave, way to go on that A/C. Looking forward to seeing it on April
12.

Do you have a big/bigger condensor on there?

We "escaped" the tornado stuff but had severe rain.  Driving in at
seven AM the rain was so bad I had to pull over and wait for it to
subside a bit.  Radio said a tornado was right on top of us!  Never
saw it but it did touch down about ten miles away and then another in
Perry.  Huge tree fell up front at the shop and took out the power
lines so no power for most of the day, but other than that we are
fine.
  As far as a condenser, I will use one of the latest HiPo aluminum
from Classic; the biggest that will fit in front of the radiator and
it will also get a nice SPAL fan and controller.  Auxillary fuse panel
and relays to route the power and  HiLo switch to protect the whole
mess.

BTDT.....
I have a R134 condenser and an R12 evaporator. Works fine.
I wired mine up with two relays, and a toggle switch.
<http://rides.webshots.com/photo/1140241852038087468PHgIuM>
It is set up so the blower comes on as soon as the a/c clutch coil is
energized, or the separate (a/c dedicated) water temp switch closes,
or when I throw the toggle switch.
My hi/low switch is in the clutch supply wire. (required by state law
now)
For example, if I know I am going to be stuck in traffic (or before a
parade/cruise), I'll throw the toggle switch and not wait for it to
get hot. Mine doesn't get real hot, but Florida can push the limits,
especially in the summer..
Sounds like you have a good handle on it all...

I use a fan "control box" that also has a temp sensor (drill and tap a
hole either in the water manifold or the thermostat housing) and is
adjustable.  The fan will come on with the AC or when the temp gets
high enough.  Also has a diode to prevent the fan from feeding back
when not running.  It has provison for two fans if you desire.  Relays
and auxillary fuse panel for the main AC stuff.
