GM brought out a series of V belt Air Conditioning Compressors for the TPI & the Carby version separately in 1985.. all look similiar.. in this transition years.. nearly all were "V" belts driven for the point of what we are looking at right now.
------------------------------------------
Service Tip: Once filled with oil, place or hold the new A/C Compressor with the front seal facing down for 1-3 minutes. This will help coat the seal with oil - if this seal is not lubricated before installation, refrigerant may leak.
This compressor is for 1985 Camaro or Firebird with 5speed manual "H" code engines.
- 5.4" DIA PULLEY - R4 - w/CLU - 4-SPD A/TRANS (MD8)
The Key here is to identify the CLUTCH width.. it is 5.40 inch.
- THIS UNIT IS THE 5.40" width Clutch.. measure it.. don't guess..
- This unit was used on MANUAL 5 speed vehicles.
- This unit was for cars with the engine code of "H" as the 8th letter of the Vin Code. ...

THE # 1 ATTEMPTED WARRANT CLAIM IS ON AC COMPRESSORS.. fitted by a "Mate" or local person who does everything.. DON'T SHORTCUT yourself.. the COMPRESSOR YOU ARE WANTING TO REPLACE is dead due to what.. maybe a "regas' that did not hold up... THE COMPRESSOR WILL ALWAYS FAIL when ANYTHING is not working right. .. the Compressor.. WHY.. cause there are about 15 other areas that needed to be checked.
WHY BUY A COMPRESSOR OF US or ANYBODY IF your not getting it done right. ???
?A successful A/C Compressor repair requires more than just the compressor! Always flush the system and replace the small components that cannot be flushed -- A/C Expansion Valve (or A/C Orifice Tube) and A/C Receiver Drier / Accumulator (or A/C Receiver Drier Desiccant Element) -- to prevent old contaminants from damaging your new compressor. Replacement of these components is often required to satisfy a manufacturer warranty claim
SO.. if you have a Automatic Camaro or Firebird Carby V8 - this should NOT be the compressor.
Not for the F (TPI) or G engine Carby versions or H code Auto's
Brand NEW GM Compressor.
