Random question....has anybody in dealt with vintage air for these trucks? Opinions would be appreciated.

Re: 69 gmc dually soon to be 12valve
 

Looks nice. It looks like you made a wise choice and got a cross member from AW. I haven't used a vintage air for these trucks. But, I know a few local guys who have and they love them.

Re: 69 gmc dually soon to be 12valve
 

Yeah, I think I could of fabricated the crossmember to the first gen mounts. I looked up autoworld and called them. They are awesome to deal with. Great people....it's my first go around with a conversion. I want to get it right. Just wondered about the vintage air....it would clean up the firewall a bit and give me more room. Pricey tho lol!

The only downside to any aftermarket heat/air is that they use inside cab air. Therw is no fresh air option which make defrosting windows using the heat function very challenging.

Re: 69 gmc dually soon to be 12valve
 

Do they have a website? How much was that crossmember?

Here you go.

Cool, thanks

That doesn't come up as an actual website :(

Re: 69 gmc dually soon to be 12valve
 

They must have axed their old one. :lol: Sorry about that.

Oil return line for the turbo. Stock isn't going to work with the new mounts. Anybody have any info on aftermarket? I'd rather not use a piece of silicone hose if I can help it.

Re: 69 gmc dually soon to be 12valve
 

Well, you can use one from a 60 series Detroit diesel. It is SS and has flex joints in it. You cut it to length and use your stock hose at the bottom. I'll see if I can find a part number for you.

Re: 69 gmc dually soon to be 12valve
 

That would be awesome.

Re: 69 gmc dually soon to be 12valve
 

is the PN on the part? i may have one sitting in my garage.

Re: 69 gmc dually soon to be 12valve
 

Here's a detroit diesel part number. 23505038 they're about $83 retail.

Re: 69 gmc dually soon to be 12valve
 

Thanks! Ryan if you do have one kicking around in the garage let me know.

Re: 69 gmc dually soon to be 12valve
 

I'll check before I go to work today. I think I do have one sitting on a shelf, under a mess. :lol:
