I"m partial to the alcohol evaporator. My 1981 Ford has it from the factory. I tried to search the INTERNET for a kit but didn"t find any. Every time the compressor cycles it injects a alcohol mist into the air system. In very cold weather you still can drain the air tanks and get liquid. I think that proves its working? If I didn"t get liquid, the moisture is frozen? I don"t see how a dryer works. To keep moisture out of my shop air I put 60 feet of 1/2" copper tubing in a small barrel with water & antifreeze mix. Then put it in a old refrigerator. Now the moisture trap on the outside of the refrigerator traps the water. Before it went through the trap and condensed in the air hose on the floor.
My two cents, Dennis.......
