What all Do you need?

I was just at the JY today and I found two cars with the console controls, the freshair vents, and the inside box. Both were missing the Engine bay "heat only" box though. Did you want the Dash too with the blockoff vents on the sides?

I may go back Tuesday to the JY and I could pull them for you if you want them. No charge, whatever I pay, you pay. If you're going to be at Dyno, I can give them to you then.

I think we've talked about this before. Last setup I pulled was for my own car. Thought I was going to sell it when I planned on keeping my old 85 Z/28.

Hey Chris.. if you think bout it, and its not too hard.. can you grab the heater core cover for an a/c box? Just the screw on plastic cover inside the car.. mine's cracked and keeps letting one of the air doors jam.

It depends on how far you want to dig. Mine has everythong under the hood removed, and swapped to the delete box, but I kept the controls and dash. I honestly like the side vents and the four-speed control.

Wolf... all you need is an A/C Delete pulley, and a shorter belt, and the diagram for re-routing the new shorter belt.

You don't need to do anything to the heater controls unless you're going for that "stock" look.

Mine still says A/C on it and everything works just fine. I just flip it to vent/ defrost/heater.

Didn't change ANY duct work.

Then of course you need the A/C Delete/non-a/c box.... and the appropriate blower motor.

Chris, ya all I need is the cover. I think I broke mine when I put a new core in a few years ago.

well part of the reason i want to do this cahnge over aside from the fact, my ac dont work, with my headers & the AC box, i cant get my hand all the way back in there, is that my heat doesnt work very well, something is messed up i think in the controls, if i move it around, the heat will sometimes turn on, when its supposed to be on & if i hit a bump or such it will stop blowing hot air.

Shawn,

Here's the full list of what I did with the "heat only"

Dasboard with Blockoff plates on the ends
Defrost and Heater ducting.
Interior box with console 'blend' controls and heat control
Engine bay box
Wiring harness with 3 plug resistor
New 3 plug resistor (only needed this cuz the one on there was bad)

You can get the cable controls for the "right air" and "left air" fresh air vents. They would mount directly under the steering column. I chose not to get either one of those controls. The passenger side vent I have about 1/4 open perminately and the driver vent is fully closed.

so no one can help out a fellow crebie?

Sad

If it's not blowing, either the motor, resistor, or the harness is probably crapped out. If you're going to do the AC delete, you might as well just get a new motor and box from droptoproc.
