A/C vaccuum line
« on: January 05, 2011 - 01:00:52 AM »
Can anyone tell me where the vaccuum line for the A/C comes through the fire-wall on a `70 383 SE challenger? If possible a picture would be GREAT!      :ylsuper: Thank-you for the help in advance. :2thumbs: :bigsmile:

Below the blower ,motor to the right you have a approx 1" round hole where the line goes thru. You also need a rubber grommet for this passage. See picture.

AC cars have the heater control valve coming out of a hole on the other side between the master cylinder and the hinge area. Non-AC cars don't have an engine compartment heater control valve.
