(And my wife calls me a "polar bear" because I like the thermostat at 68 at home. LOL) I'd say I'm pretty happy with my new R-134a system. Fan makes a flappy noise, though. I think there's a leaf in there. Gonna pull the fan assembly and clean out the box this weekend.
    I saw your youtube video. Glad to hear that the R-134a taste ok.

    No, no - it was the PAG oil that tasted awful! LOL

    That’s true, the gas itself is probably tasteless.

    It used to be used in asthma inhalers.

    Drove 60 miles to Miami and back. First experience driving at highway speeds with the radiator duct installed. Really liking the result.

    Had a bit of excitement when a guy in a pristine blue Porsche convertible slowed down passing me so that his passenger could take a photo of my beat up and dirty DMC. Gotta love the world's cheapest exotic car. LOL

    Got all my parts in from various vendors. Will be replacing all hoses in coolant system, water pump, installing my second-hand Stage I exhaust, and will have fascias repainted along with some other things shortly. From my first experience ordering, Delorean Industries was by far the best experience I had with their knowledge, communication and shipping speed. I ordered some additional parts from them after another vendor told me they didn't have items in stock that I had ordered 11 days prior.

    In the meantime, I couldn't wait to make these two small cosmetic changes that make a big difference. The shift knob is beautiful and impossibly heavy. The website photos don't do it justice. In hindsight, I probably could have heated and flattened the Craig surround, but oh well.

    +1 Delorean Industries customer service is second to none and its clear that the detail of there products are meticulous. I mean just the brackets that hold the overflow tank are impressive.

    DMCH. The one that arrived is different than the picture, though. It says DMC in the shift pattern, the pattern is etched and the lines aren't as thick as shown. Really nice.
