1971 Non-AC Heater Box/Fresh Air Setup
« on: June 12, 2006 - 06:28:46 AM »
Hey Guys,
              I just removed an aftermarket A/C system of my Cuda. I might add that it was a real hack job...for instance the heater hoses were coming in through the bottom of the firewall and not from the top. I want to go back to stock here. Other than the non- A/C heater control that I have , I don't have anything else yet for this process. Need a picture, part description or a contact to see how a non-a/c car is setup from under the dash and coming in from the engine. I am also unsure if there was supposed to be a fresh air system on a non /ac car. Currently the the whole system worked on vacuum which I know is not right.                        Thanks Alot,  AL

Any news on this? I have an original A/C car and am trying to figure out what components to put back. I think I am going to rebuild the stock A/C box and then get all new underhood components. HAven't "officially" decided yet though.

HotCuda, The few non A/C e-body cars I had had duel fresh air intakes an either side of the car down low, the drivers side was behind the kick pannel I think and the pass side was next to the heater box. The non A/C cars use cables to operate the system. I don't currently have a non A/C car and those were years ago. Hopefully someone else can help with the rest of your question. Eviltwin, look in the rest of tech section under sanden compressor, there are some pics of a/c car setup's there.
