OK i don't know much/ anything about a/c but the part that the hoses connect to in the rad wont fit like the A/C Condenser is from the 91 chevy and the hoses are from the 94 chevy since 1989-93 chevys uses a diffrent condenser than the 94 what are my options. i think i could fix it just by picking up a new condenser for the 94 but would that fix it or is there something else i need? what I'm thinking is the 91 front clip is for r12 and the 94 hoses are for 134a

That's what I was thinking when i read your post.....a 91 condensor and a 94 compressor/hose assembly. 

You could try to get hoses for a 91 and see if they tie in to your 94 or try to get a 91 compressor so the hoses match the 91 condensor. 

You may be able to tie in a 94 condensor into the 91 clip, perhaps--not sure if any changes are needed for bolt holes and such (probably).   Or, get to a hose fitter company and they could match up a hose end for you i would think.

Now the question is "who's on first? I dunno's on second"

Or split the difference and get all 92.5 model year a/c stuff and throw away the 91 and 94 stuff.  Or, tell your wife not to wreck any more or she's fixin it next time (no, that may not be good for you)


But, of course, you knew all of this.
