I've been told that you can not use the original AC compressor (1999 LS1) with vintage air since it has a variable pressure.
I also know people who have been driving with this setup for years without any problems. Can I damage the VA unit or will it not cool enough with the LS1 compressor?
Should I spend the extra money on a new compressor or not?

yes vintage air told me it would not work try hot rod air they say it will work with the stock compressor

I installed Hot Rod Air in my 1935 Ford using the GM compressor, it works just fine. The compressor is variable but it doesn't seem to mind the thermal expansion valve (TXV) type refrigerant control one bit.
