The truck does not have factory AC. So it would need a full kit.

My concern was you see people swapping in complete aftermarket kits, but how do they compare?

The cost of fixing a factory system, and a completely new system is not far off. Especially at the price I want to pay for a project. Since I want a 450hp small block, 4R70 trans, 14 bolt SF with 4.86 gears, stepwise bed, and all on a C20 chassis. I am a fan of the factory big brake option. So I don't want to pay a premium for a finished truck, and I will end up getting what I get at some point.

So I want to be careful when parts/money exchange hands.
