Seems strange it is listed to fit a 66 Valiant but not a 66 Dart???? Fit seems questionable? |

I believe Ron Hamby installed an E Bay kit in his early A body and it was about 1/2 the cost of this kit and he said it worked well. |

do you know what company it was, I need everything including the brackets and any pulleys that go with the AC system. They are selling this as a complete system, that is why I found it attractive. Do you know anyone else selling it this way? |

I will say, as far as I know, every compressor mount & drive sold for the slant six is made by the same company. On an early "A" body, it is not a bolt on. There are clearance issues, with the fan and radiator, so be prepared. |

Coldmaster Inc. Is the name Ron sent me. His kit was under $500 |

I found this one, I just need to find the brackets for my car. the compressor is readily available from many places. does the 225 have the same brackets? Or maybe something from the same year or close to it from a barracuda? Thanks for the help Shawn http://www.ebay.com/itm/262978032941?_t ... EBIDX%3AIT |

This came off a 225, but I don't see any reason that it would not fit a 170. http://www.slantsix.org/forum/viewtopic.php?p=456874#456874 |

Here's an original Chrysler system out of a '64 Dart that'll fit in your '66 Valiant. You'll need to get some new parts (hoses, filter-dryer) but that's not hard. |
