  • Sanden 508

    Does anyone have an old Sanden 508 AC compressor laying around that I could borrow for some test fitting?

    Mocking up the accessory brackets in the Torino and I want to plan ahead for AC.

      I can wait till Tuesday, I'm in no rush.

      Is it serpentine or V belt?

            I do not remember what pulley is on it. It was a left over from an A/C kit for a Defender 90 project that I had going a few years ago.

            The 86-88 non turbo RX-7s used an SD 708 or 709 and I believe that it is a superior compressor and have used it for many, many projects. Buying about 900 of them for a song when Mazda closed their distribution center in Sugarland TX about 14 years ago also helped me believe that they are the bomb.

            Shoot me your number in a PM. I may swing by my shop tomorrow and can get it then.

              I'm a little limited on space and I think the 709 is a bit bigger hence going with 508 but I won't really know till I can try it out.

                Ive got one in a double V belt setup if needed. It's been sitting around the shop for a while, but it's new.

                          Looks like 7 rib? $150 in midlothian but I'll be out and around tomorrow if you wanna meet. These are well over $200 anywhere else unless you get a knock off.

                            I think I'll pass for now. I need to make sure it fits before I drop the cash on one.

                            Thanks though

                              I met SVO today and he was gracious enough to meet me near my work to drop off a unused Sanden 508 for me to test out for my project.

                              Thanks SVO
