What's the best replacement A/C compressor? 200 1991

The original Diesel-Kiki in my '91 is running on 134a but leaks at the main seal and experiences intermittent clutch problems. Probably time for a replacement compressor. What's the best replacement? Nostalgic Air Parts has 'Volvo compressors'? Has anyone had experience with them?
Also, the current setup has a 134a adapter fitted over the original r12 fitting on the high side of the compressor. The low side fitting is on the side of the accumulator. If the new 134a compressor doesn't have fittings, does the Volvo conversion kit provide new locations for both high and low fittings?
Thanks for any input.
