Its on a tag attached to the bracket that holds the hose ends in place. The box also says 4306.

All the online catalogs show the OHV and DOHC condensers as the same part# which end w ..306. The pics used appear to show the correct part, but the one I got from AZ doesn't look like that. Taking it back for refund.

Can you get me a picture of the other end of both of them?

Is ti the same width? I see the core height is less but the frame 'end' structure looks the same height. How far off are the fittings? inches? 10ths of inches? 100ths of inches?

I seem to remember mine being a pain and did not quite line up..

Industry interchange says your ref# and the one he was sold are same applications. It can't be an '89 as the '89 stood straight up and the fitting were 'parallel' with the floor.

Got a refund from AZ. Very straightforward. Picking up a used condenser from Vette2Vette today. Jason said he has several 90-93 units in good condition that hold pressure. New compressor and tensioner are in.

I should add that the Parallel Flow condenser while it may need a bit of tweaking, being parallel flow is suited more for a R134a system.

As some know on a typical R12 to R134a conversion the R134a tends to run a bit higher head pressure than R12. the Parallel flow will help alleviate that. in fact my R12 system with the parallel flow compressor I barely notice the added load on the motor due to the nature of the parallel flow vs the OEM Tube and Fin

While I understand some want the OEM fit and drop in, this will help others when looking to fix there systems

Happy Cooling
