You might check with Vintage Air, in San Antonio (I think). They do all
sorts of custom systems for resto work and street rods. I may talk to them
about building a custom system for the street 510, even though I have the
under dash component that was in the car when I bought it. It actually
worked, but you sure could tell when that York compressor kicked on. The
trick these days seems to be to use the small rotary compressors that have
far less parasitic drag and are much more efficient.
FWIW,
