GM brought out a series of Air Conditioning Compressors for the TPI & the Carby version separately in 1985.. all look similiar.. 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.
------------------------------------------
The Key here is to identify the CLUTCH width.. either 4.9 inches or 5.40in
- THIS UNIT IS THE 4.9 width Clutch.. measure it.. don't guess..
- This unit was mainly.. (but not 100% always) used on MANUAL vehicles. 5-SPD M/TRANS (M39)
- This unit was for cars normally with the engine code of "G" as the 8th letter of the Vin Code. ... but used on both autos & manuals on the "H" Code series cars.
SO.. if you have a MANUAL 1985 Camaro or Firebird.. with the 8th letter being a "G".. then this is or should be your compressor..
This unit is for the replacement of the original GM 1985 carby compressor only.
Not for the F (TPI) or H engine Carby versions.
?? Delivery is additional - we can figure that when it's known where to go and if to a commercial business or private.
