Default Need air condition help for 77

I have an early 77 and purchased the Ecklers R134 conversion kit thinking that I had a late 77. When I found it has the old VIR, I bought their kit to replace the VIR with an eccumulator. The R134 conversion kit came with a replacement orifice, which I don't know what to do with. Does my system have an orifice somewhere, or would it be built into the new accumulator? So far, Ecklers hasn't responded to this question to them. Any help would be appreciated.

I might be wrong but when i upgraded to r 134a i was told that i had to replace the VIR, because it is basicly the dryer, the o ring's, pulled a vacuum and filled it up. when i got my car i had no a/c in it so i basicly had to start from scrath. good luck and let me know if you need any more info or possible places to get parts.
