R-134a conversion / Vacuum 200 1988

Going to convert my 240 to R-134a, the compressor is shot so I will be replacing pretty much everything including the compressor.

After I've replaced the compressor (with the correct oil), expansion valve, evaporator, and drier, I understand that I need to vacuum the system.

Any reason not to use this to do the job?

After I've vacummed it out for an hour, it is just a matter of running the AC at max and putting in just over 2 lbs of 134-a, correct?

Thanks for any advice.
