Any B13 guys here converted to R134a refridgerant? My system was evacuated for the engine swap and now that it's warming up, it's time to get the A/C repaired. I've seen Freeze 12 as a replacement, but then I see kits that will sort of convert (although I assume not very well) our R12 systems to R134.

I had mine done last year. Its relatively simple conversion, any local shop can do it or you can buy the kit at autozone and do it yourself.

real conversion requires replacement of the ac compressor and other things

lesser conversion puts r134a or other stuff in a r12 system... don't have it mixed up

problem with the lesser conversion is that 1) it migiht not be as cold 2) your system might not handle it
