I am replacing the drier on 71 b body, stock a/c system. Auto Zone, O'reilly, Advance Auto and Napa are all selling the same drier, which has too large of a hole for the proper cutoff switch to be installed on the drier.
Each of the stores lists a cutoff switch for my car, but these switches do not fit the driers listed for the car.
Ideas??
Thanks

thanks for the response. Yes, I did check them out, and they could solve the problem.
But, being a little slow sometimes, I figured out this morning that all I need to do is use the other port on the other side of the drier for my switch fitting.
I will just paint the brass fitting in the other side black to hide it a little.

These guys are good too. http://www.nostalgicairparts.com/Great prices, lots of info and free shipping. I used them to get the biggest condensor that would fit in my 26" e-body radiator openning (17" by 27 1/2" including the width with the aluminum line curving up to the reciever/drier). The price was lower than anywhere else for 134a style condensor and the quality is high. I had them mount and install the reciever dryer and plumb an aluminum line to it, all for $140 something.
