R4 to Sanden - what model has worked out the best?

[big-blue]

Has anyone swapped in an Sanden? Preparing for a complete AC overhaul next month and Getting the Sanden conversion mount to get the old R4 pancake out. However the mounting kit says it will work with either the 5 or 7 chamber models, specifically the SD5H14 / 508 or SD7H15 / 709 ones. Other than the serpentine pulley needing to be swapped, any gotchas to note? I suspect new hoses will have to be made. The mount is from nostalgic AC.

I am also doing an new updated condenser as well.
