    AC for 3.5L V8

    I am bringing in an 88 D90 V8 and interested in adding AC. Any suggestions? This D90 will be for sale so if interested, email me a cuis2000@yahoo.com for pics. Very nice unit.

      Find a RRC or D1 and take all the AC stuff off of it. Or call Will Tillery and have him pull it all for you.
      PS I think I saw a few RHD AC dash units on ebay.co.uk

        That's a good idea. Thanks

          Question why would a RRC or Disco AC Equipment work in an 88 D90 V8 - would it also work in an 88 D90 2.5TD? Hate to intrude but obviously if you read my post I believe I am about to have some issues with the Kit that is coming in with mine. May be a great deal for someone on E-bay or may be cannibalized for whatever components I could use if RRC or Disco equipment would work in any fashion with mine.

            The disco and rrc both used the 3.5L engine. I have been scanning eBay a little for the bits needed. I will need a RHD interior blower which I may can get thru RN. I asked what AC kits they carry might could be rigged to work. No reply yet.

              Did you complete this addition? I have a 1986 110 with the 3,.5 and I have all the parts to do this. I pad $500 pounds and another $500 pounds shipping. I'd like the instructions or tips Nate if completed. Or I may sell the whole kit for what I have in it.

                Sorry for delay. Just picked up the 90 yesterday. I am leaning more towards a universal, under dash mount AC.
