Hi everyone. Im a new member here so be gentle with me.
i am in the process of restoring a 1972 (oil flap) 911e which has only covered 22k miles. Unfortunately the previous owner remover the MFI and replaced it with carbs and in doing so removed the A/C compressor. Would love to find a complete original set and original compressor to finish the job off properly.
Any suggestions?

Suggestion:
For MFI it might be worth giving Neil Bainbridge a call. I noticed a few MFI pumps in his recently-acquired parts stash.

Unsolicited suggestion:
AC compressor - be happy it's in the bin where it belongs. It's a great way to lose a few hp and make the engine bay and cabin ugly. Whether it makes any difference to cabin temperature is more debatable....

welcome to DDK Paul.
Are you uk based ? If so Air-con is pretty rare to see , so it might be worth trying to find any aircon stuff in the US etc

Hello Paul.
What would be nice is for you to find a complete 72 MFI set up which is possible but extremely difficult.
You might have to pick things up bit by bit and I do have a few items you will need. If you are holding out for a complete system that’s fine but if you would like a list of what I have send me a pm for pictures and details.
Regards
Mike

Here’s a starter part,
2.4E MFI pump casting date 24th week of 1972. The cam pulley wheel looks a bit worse for wear but I think I have spares.
Lots more MFI parts available.
Regards
Mike

Still rare as hens teeth Mike and I was forgetting my engine plans have changed so may not want to split the complete 2.4E engine I have!
Sorry Paul

Now if only somebody made an ‘invisible’ AC system for 911s?
