I just purchased one of those sets for $26 and it seems perfectly adequate--just used it on my neighbour's GMC and gave him my older set. As far as converting to 134, I did so on my GMC probably 10 years ago and never looked back. I did not remove the old oil or anything else. Mine is a 78 unit and I noticed a slight reduction in output but it is still perfectly adequate in 100 + temps here in AZ. I recall at the time that there were many nay sayers about this but frankly I have not had any problems in thousands of miles of usage. I don't think I've added any for at least 5 years if ever since the retrofit. At the time when I had some older cars as well, I made the same conversion and from what I hear are still performing just fine. I have nothing against duracool--I just didn't know about it at the time. I have several friends in Michigan running 134 with absolutely no issues.
