Well thanks for this information and going the extra mile and posting it. My hat is off to you sir job well done.

thank you Jack. It was a daunting project and a steep learning curve; I am now just finishing the pass side AC replacement. Pass side a little tricky as the heater and hot air ducts are in the way of a clean straight shot from AC cold discharge, however I think we (we meaning my HVAC mechanical contractor) have a work around. One thing for sure is that the air flow is substantially improved over the Coleman and it runs much quieter. One concern we have is that the Newell ducting does not allow enough air flow and the air handler coils may freeze (has not happened while testing but only a long run time will determine); will have to determine by actual live-aboard experience this summer once we hit the road.
