Re: ac to heat only
you also use different duct work and the other thing is the vents in the center of the dash pad are eliminated the air goes out the bottom or top no center
here are some pics of the old one i have in my basement from my 76

Re: ac to heat only
I don't remember who sells it, but there's a plate you can buy to cover up where the ac box was and convert it to heat only. IIRC the holes in the firewall are different for AC and non-AC trucks.

Re: ac to heat only
May wanna do it yourself since you know how. I think that thing was like $140 or so. It looks good though.
EDIT: I found a link to it HERE Last edited by 78 Chevyrado; 01-17-2010 at 08:48 PM. |

Re: ac to heat only
The heater cores and location of the outlets for them into the firewall is different as well.
