I noticed that most of the dash ac compressor replacements Sanden, 4 seasons ect. have a lower displacement
than the oem a6. Any one who has used one of the replacements which one did you use and do you notice any
loss of cold air? (this is if you had a working unit to compare it to)

Hay Jim,
I was on your website earlier and also noticed the s6 replacement for our a6. Is either one (s6 or sanden)better than the other?
O by the way I still love the 370. Thank you for that.

Wayne, That Aluminum S6 turned out to be a typical Communist Chinese
Crapola.
We sold lot of Vintage Air units with the Sanden compressors and realized
most had run lot of miles on them with no problems.
That's when we went with Sanden and have not had one come back in the 3
years. Most are made in Japan where they make private labels for
Lexus,Acura and others.
We are happy to see you are enjoying the 3.70 Final Drive unit.
When you get a chance try advancing the ignition timing 1-2 degrees as it
will make lot of difference.

I have Jims Sanden replacement, it works great. I have an AUX AC under the couch and I can cool the whole coach nicely.
The only issue is the bolts on the pulley, you HAVE to be careful that they don't hit your hoses when the motor torques over under load as it makes a great saw and will cut you hose. Ask me how I know!
My A6 never worked, so I can't compare

I have Jim K’s conversion. Is there a trick to installing the compressor. I the brackets installed. I had to cut clearance for the fuel line but other than that it went on without to much trouble.

Never mine I took off the valve cover and had no problem putting the compressor in. Hope this is worth it. Once i get it together I will cut some holes in the front of the box and run two tubes up to provide some cooling. One will be run to the seat by the table to see if it will cool a little back there for my wife. Hope that helps cool down the RV a little where she sits.

Art,
I don't quite understand your post, but what I think you're proposing to do
is to add ductwork from the front of the HVAC box, through the firewall to
provide more airflow into the cockpit. That MAY help with cooling -- quite
a few people have done something similar. BUT, the fairly recent
experience of a friend prompts me to issue a caution: Their engine battery
"exploded", causing a sudden burst of flame. The flame should have
followed the firewall up to the base of the windshield and perhaps been
extinguished for lack of oxygen. Or, at worst, burned through to the
outside of the windshield. Unfortunately, a PO had added a plastic duct
firewall above the passenger's feet. That duct was immediately burned
through, allowing the flame to penetrate the firewall, and follow the
cockpit side of it up behind the dashboard, along the inside of the
windshield, over the passenger's head, etc., all the way to the back of the
coach. Essentially everything above the beltline was burned or badly smoke
damaged. Little damage below the beltline.
Without that ductwork through the firewall, the coach might well have still
been totalled -- but with little or no interior damage.
Just something to think about. I know if I were tempted as you are, I'd
use very fire resistant materials (my custom HVAC box is made of 12 gauge
aluminum).

Not sure of the posting, however our Sanden compressor bracket does not
require it to be removed should the valve cover need be removed. Nice
benefit.

FWIW I would make sure the genny works and run the roof ac to keep the
coach cooler in really hot conditions before I would embark on a project as
ambitious as building and running all that ductwork.

Thanks Ken. Something to think about. I need to get some air back where the table is. I guess I’ll see if I can get some metal tubing to run thru the firewall. I have the fire extinguisher set up which will help some but I removed the fender liners to see if that helps with vapor lock problems I been having.

Todd I would if I thought I had a chance to make it work. It’s hard to fix when it run fine at home. I ran it for 4 hours the last time before i left for a trip. It quit within 30 minutes when on the road. I do not know what to do. I changed the coil, I changed the condenser, replaced all the diode. I plan to replace the oil sensor and change the oil. Then insulate the fuel line that runs under the generator.

Sometimes it is the oil pressure switch that is shutting it off. Need to
install a lower pressure sender.

Onans that run fine at home then die on the road is usually a kinked fuel hose between the nipple on the drawer floor and the fuel pump. There was a factory spring to dress the hose but those have rusted away years ago Drawer closed, line kinks and reduces fuel flow just enough to eventually not keep up.
