I used a uni-bit to make them match. I used a Spectre condensor and had to adjust the soldered-on tube to line up to the AC adapter lines on the drivers side. The only line that is a problem to source now is the liquid crossover line over the top of the radiator support but I had a local hydraulic shop make that one for me. The drier clamp I too had to modify-I think I just used an 88-up style clamp.
Thanks Gmachinz for the input. I was able to make everything work but yes I had all those same issues. I modified the liquid line enough to fit. Ill search out another dryer clamp. Thanks.
