The barrel of the locks are fairly universal for the doors and can be swapped. Sometimes you can swap the whole handle over for the Early cars. For the late models with Central locking and scripted handles are Left, right only.

Nothing yet. I am thinking about going to my Dads tomorrow and doing some tinkering on the wiring if I can get away from the house lol.

uploaded a new video, with some good and bad news >_<

Hiya. Here is a thread to my build. I have not done much of anything lately. between work and house needs, my car stuff has grind to a halt. forums.pelicanparts.com/porsche-engine-conversion-tech-forum/941956-audi-v8-924-a.html A lot of work was needed. I am going to be redoing the strut housings and the runners with tubes.

You do not have to drain the coolant. the lines removed are part of the fuel.

Oh wow! It has been a LONG time haha. How are you doing? Funny how that turns up. What you been up to? I am Married now with 3 wonderful kiddos to run and play with. drop me a email. golten1986@gmail.com can swap more info there.

Link to it compressor?

I have actually never seen or heard of a risk of a condenser being too large, only too small. Over all the condenser should be suitable for the cabin size. Depending on the size of your classic. Say a large A body. going with a 19"x30" would be the smallest recommended.

@@dr.frahnkensteeen4485 think of it as a large van or small motorhome That's what I'm going to be cooling down. Has the original dealer installed AC system in the dashboard but the rest of the system is missing. Hoping to convert something like this and be able to run it with the engine off. Possibly strictly off solar or being plugged in at a campsite.

Thank you. I am happy to hear it! it has been a steep learning curve

I figured that out after I did the video.

@@dr.frahnkensteeen4485 I didn't know it either until just tonight after loads of research. Unfortunately there isn't much on these systems.

Hi. I have it set up on its own switch. I explain about it in a later video. I planned on having it run off the factory AC switch, But ran into a few complications with that. But I do plan on going back to that route once I get the system running good and can actually go for a drive test.

Hiya. So far no issues at all with the lifters. It is still happy ^_^ I had did not know that about the Ford. That is pretty cool. Those Sierra Cosworths are fun from what i have seen and heard.

The Cosworths were from the same era and much sorted by guys on a lower budget compared to the cost of Porsches. For modifying, racing, stealing and crashing. Add poor build quality ie that rust worm there’s very few of these cars left now and are very collectible and going up in value all the time.

Ive fitted the Cosworth tappets/lifters these are an Motive Components part number "HL66C" Hydraulic tappet/lifter in my 944S and so far so good

Very happy to hear this video helped you out! Also thank you for tossing in some tools notes, Those are always useful.

Hi, did you drain coolant system ?

How long did it take you on mines i gotta changed it i dont have to take the lines out

@@cylogistics8262 if you have all tools ready shouldn't take longer than an hour or two. I also used a snake camera to look around the area but not necessary

@@forestcleaner2322 didn't drain nothing

Not sure. Only have used this one.

Alternator is from a Nissan quest., and my battery is a standard H6 that the Porsche came with. it is around 70 amp hours.

Thank you sir

I did find that out too. so no PAG was added lol.

Thank you. It has been an insane amount of work and with my current work schedule and living conditions I have not made any new progress on this car. I have done small things here and there with wiring, and tubing.. I have a 8 bolt flywheel, all aluminum type, I was able to get it for an amazing deal 4 years ago or so. My plate is the Audi V6 spacer welded to a Porsche 924 turbo bellhousing.

@@dr.frahnkensteeen4485 Oh thanks. That's all you had to do was clock the 1/2" thick 2.7T spacer how you wanted and TIG welded it straight to the Porsche bellhousing? All the offsets were correct? How about the crank position sensor? Also, must it be located in the EXACT SAME LOCATION as in the D2 A8L? Thanks

@@vwaudiwelder You are welcome. Pretty much, about 85% of the holes lines up to the v8. Only ones I have to mod slightly are for the starter. For the crank sensor, I may have to weld in some metal, drill it out at the location needed. But the stock 931 sensor location is super close..

Not yet, still at my Dads house in the back of the garage. Have other cars that went in front of her for now.

If I remember correctly there is a heavy gauge Red wire with green stripe that you need to make sure has 12volts going to it. if not, then you will have to cut it and run a separate relay with ignition power. the heavy wire comes off the Orange connector.

@@dr.frahnkensteeen4485 There’s probably a minimum of four wires that need to be ran. 12v+, ground, signal and another I need to know all four. If you can direct me to em and help pls appreciate it

@@albion904 I only had to apply 12volts to the Heavy red with green. The other ones connected just fine. I have a B5 Chassis, I can double check my APB 2.7t harness tomorrow.

Using a good scan tool, check the fuel pressure, it should stay fairly close to the commanded pressure from the ECU, if it does not and goes up and down, normally it is the metering valve. If you do not have a scanner, start the engine and listen to it. if the valve is going bad The engine will have a harsh idle or will cough, where it will almost sound like it is wanting to die but recovers.

It actually did, with the system running at full RPM alternator was able to keep the charging system at 13.2volts. when I had the120amp was barely holding at 12.1volts while running.

Hello to you, My apologize for the delay. I have been working a lot. Happy that you can least see what is accomplished. You can purchase the compressor, but It will have to be adapted to the factory Refrigerant lines. The biggest obstruction in using a Electric Compressor is to be sure the Alternator is producing enough Amperage to power it. If your alternator in the Mini Truck is anything under 125 Amps the compressor will function poorly. As for durable.. I can not confirm anything, mainly have let it sit and run for a good 30 to 45 minutes at a time with no faults. But extended use beyond that I am no sure.

Just sitting in one spot it does, also I deemed the condenser I installed too small, so it has been upgraded. I have not been able to go for a drive to see if it hits the lower pressures needed to shut off

Sorry got the delayed response, work has been insane lately! Very glad the information helped you for sure. I am using a coolant tank from a VW/Audi B5 series. The 944 coolant tanks have become stupid expensive and I have always wanted to move the reservoir up higher then the engine and away from the front. Both the 944 and 924 have expansion type tanks, no steam pipes/vents. Hold constant pressure under engine operations. The crimp kit works nicely. I may be testing a different type of line and fitting style next on my car, will see how it goes.

Sorry you had issues. My evap system uses an expansion valve.

any details on what you tried?

Thank you are you are welcome.

You are welcome ^_^

Thank you.

Thank you. I swapped out the 2.7 a while back, but for wiring was mainly down to getting power to the right pins. I also had to set up a separate power replay for the power to the coils.

@@dr.frahnkensteeen4485 thank you for answer. I'm going to do the same swap from mine W8 which feels very bad

شكرا لك ، أفهم أن العيش في الحرارة قضى 5 سنوات بالقرب من وادي الموت و 4.7 سنوات في الخليج الفارسي. لقد كان هذا المشروع الكثير من حل المشكلات. هل أنت قادر على شحن هذا النظام نيابة عنك؟

أنا أستخدم مترجما شكرا جزيلا لك وأقدر لك متابعة هذا.

Very Happy this helped you out! Thank you for commenting. It helps a lot for sure.

I appreciate that. I do not feel the controller is faulty since with the correct reference voltages from the evap it does turn on and turn off. There was trouble shooting that needed to happen for me to get this sorted. The controller appears to rely on a twin power then the ground signal comes through. Similar to fuel injectors. Most systems a fuel injector has 2 power to hold it closed, then 1 power turns to ground from the ECU and fires off the injector. From what i have learned on this AC controller is it has that some basic principle for operations and most EFI systems for getting fuel to the cylinders. Hope that makes sense.

So far I have had limited time to do anything on this since part 10. Lessons learned, Larger condenser will be going in and possibly changing the hoses to a Low Barrier type. Having a good solid battery is a must, mine is a H6 group. Not really a need for two unless you want to attempt to run this system which out the engine running. I have a 145AMP alternator what actually does really good from a Nssan Quest.

@@dr.frahnkensteeen4485 Thank you for sharing and responding. I saw your alternator upgrade. Also thought about the hoses, I was thinking I might do with a solid tubing setup although that might end up cracking some time, but it would eliminate the need for hoses. I'll note your point about the battery. I was not wanting to dual battery since that would be heavy. I feel better about following your footsteps now. Thank you

@@kalui96 You are welcome. Happy to help! Going all solid would be cool, but higher chances of failures, would have to have some flexible areas. Having a good healthy battery is vital to his set up or it will kill the battery is about 2 weeks of sitting. Good call for not wanting the dual battery, it is heavy and can raise your over all cost a lot more. Anything else i can help with please let me know. I hope this Sunday I can do some more work on this and actually go for a test drive. Very happy that this has helped you.

Very nice! Blessing on your conversion ^_^

@@dr.frahnkensteeen4485 Thank you.. The AC installation is my nxt challenge.. Never made water fitting repair that did not leaked on the 1st install, much more on an A/C fittings.. Hahaha.. Im sure it will be a stiff learning curve for me.

I will try and set some time aside to do a detail video on this for sure.

@@dr.frahnkensteeen4485 thank you! I really appreciate the videos you've made so far on the topic

@@CryoSignal You are welcome. It has been a fun process and learning it all. I am going to be installing a larger condenser and fix a few leaks. At that time I will be a detailed video. and try to include links for parts used.

I will see if I can get a watt meter from work or amp meter.

about 600 watts plus condenser/evap fans about 200 watrs. need a real bigger 170A alternator.

I think I have a small leak. head pressure was around 190 and then it dropped. I need to do a nitrogen pressure test to find it so my system will stay charged.
