Thinking of shaving my firewall now , thanks to Nathan , i want to use my factory compressor , but run a under dash unit , old air said i could do that and i priced it with them everything i would need would be about $750, any pros or cons about doing this or what brand to use???

i put a "universal" fit system from Vintage Air. very happy with it. i know they make a "sure-fit" system for our trucks as well....
good luck!

would you care to tell me how much the vintage air kit was ??

I wanna say about $650 for the universal unit. I paid about $1000 for the unit, 67-72 condensor, and the vintage air control panel. I already have a Sanden compressor but yet to spend any on lines/fittings. Hope that helps.

i put togather an underdash unit on the 68 im building now. the chrome sanden compressor with brackets was 260 shipped new. and the underdash unit was 165 shipped. i have 160 in hoses and reciever drier. works liike a charm.bought all but the hoses on evilbay. just make shure you get a r/h bracket kit for your compressor and trash the oem.
