Luke, the AC lines where done (IIRC) by Hydraulic Western or some such in N. Seattle. There should be a few shops nearby you that can modify your existing AC lines for around the same price. At most, $120 for both.

I may end up going the custom route as well, depending on budget.

I used the ray's blocks in my swap. If M50 E34 lines work, I might switch to them, though. The clearance with the adapters is awkward.

When you used the ray's blocks, did you use e36 or e30 lines? Or did you have to weld one of the fittings like a few posts in the thread above say?

Subscribed, I want my A/C functional when I do my swap.

$50? Done.

What shop?

[ck_taft325is]

I just bought modified ones from Gregslow.

And he get's them done for $48.50 at a shop down the street from him. Ask me how I know? He said I could get my lines done "by him" for $120. I checked the local shops ;)

Someone out there makes an adapter for the lines.

Don't know who, but I do know I read about it.

Great thread idea!

This is what we need, all 24v swap a/c stuff in one thread.

Thanks Danny

Good idea to compile threads. Im about to start my 24V ac project next week.

Can we put all the info into one thread and clarify everything please? I am le confused.

I've found these two threads on what lines to run.

As well as a post by "Jahnaboi" Where he states the easiest way to hook up the A/C is to use lines from an m50 e34.

Here's the thread for wiring:

Now what I want to know is, has anyone come up with a plug and play solution to the lines?
