According to the archives, you want a 1978-80 Civic valve.

There was an article a few months back in the TE/AE "Rootes Review"
newsletter by Ed Esslinger of Ozark, AL about putting air conditioning
into a Sunbeam. I spoke to him a few days ago and he said he has put
a/c in at least 3 Sunbeams.

Any of the TE/AE officers out there want to give me permission to put
this article on the web? I will also get Ed's OK before proceeding.
