I might just do that anyways to save hours of drilling and tapping only to find them cracked... The car does need exhaust, why bother getting new exhaust for logs only to change it later?

I am going to flush the AC system out and re-build the hoses and re-o-ring it with a used compressor. I won't necessarily get the AC functioning now but I will get it ready for it, just put a new Pro6TenA compressor on it and charge it and it should work if nothing is wrong.
