Well, you're speaking like a pro, so I assume you are! <G>
Anyhow, you're dead on about getting sufficient sub cooling. My guess is a
Corvair evaporator will work fine once you get decent air flow over it,
something a bit lacking in the stock setup. So, fans are a great idea. Moving the
condensor elsewhere and adding electric fan(s) is even better! <G>

near the same amount of air as a waterpumper fan. Furthermore, at idle,

really get poor. The tradeoff is a Corvair cooling fan develops a LOT more
pressure, but at the end of the day, air flow is what counts for a condensor.
And
things are a bit marginal, IMHO...Snip
10-4, and it gets even more touchy with 134a. (Speaking from the standpoint
of an HVAC professional...flame me if you like, but, in this case, I know of
what I speak.)
