Sounds good but do they send overseas ? and I assume its not from the land of Chong !

He He ..I will take a knock on that one! I am gonna give the flush process a go in a while and see how we go...On the compressor front maybe the chimpanzee had a brother and he took care of my compressor.
Thanks for the recommendation on a new condenser. I will look at that now..

Guys, Thanks for all the help so far with AC rebuild on my Corvette but I need some more help here..just bought a new ACdelco condenser and the build quality is really bad. The cooling fins are running off line with the tubes and they are crunched up in places.. I need to send that back! Question is...

Oh dear ..new condenser has just turned up and it looks like its put together by a chimpanzee. The zigzag cooling fins between the horizontal tubes are kind of sticking out a bit.
