Steel bracket/adjusting mechanism to mount modern, rotary, Sanden AC
compressor (ala VW A2 & A3) in the space used by the York (piston)
compressor for Type 4 motors.

This is an issue for 411/412, 914's, 912e's, Bus and 1980-1983.5 Vanagon
owners. The York requires something like 9.5 hp to spin, the Sanden
requires something like 5, and is more efficient (cools faster/more).
While you are at it sculpt the cooling tin to cover the compressor.

Developing business and guiding change since 1996,
