@ allenfre - The Metro runs very well, thank you. Uses no oil between changes either.

@wwelder - Sorry, all I have is the "new" A/C compressor, no other A/C parts...

Quick update of first post:

I purchased a 1994 Metro with a bad valve and proceeded to swap out every part that I already had in my possession...except the compressor, wiring harness and trans module. My son now uses it for pizza delivery.
Not long after putting the engine in my 95, I installed a Delta Cams' XFi camshaft but only achieved modest results. It has been said that the 1994 & older Metros benefit more from the XFi cam due to their lighter chassis, and that the newer body style Metro's actually need every ounce of their original 55 horsepower. I am leaning towards replacing the camshaft with it's original prior to GeoPalloza '09...
