AC install tips
1972 C10. Came with factory air. I'll be installing a Vintage Air Sure-Fit system. I put a similar system in a 72 Chevelle and discovered that there was some tweaking involved. Any pointers from those who have installed VA in their C10 would be appreciated. Thanks

Re: AC install tips
Just curious why you dont want to use the original system?

Re: AC install tips
Astro-Balls: Too many missing parts with old system. Plus it hasn't been functioning for years. If I wanted to keep everything original, you bet I'd go with the factory AC.

Re: AC install tips
I removed the passenger side inner fender so I could get to the old heater box & fan. Am I better off leaving it out until the VA is installed, or should I put it back in now? Thanks

Re: AC install tips
You can install the vintage air with the fender on. There’s no real advantage to having it off.
