As stated I am starting to look at what I need to do to build an A/C system for my 914.
Since my power steering seems to be working great I can move on to the next thing on the list.. I am using a "V" belt system and really don't want to change it over, besides the cost may be more than I want to spend. If someone knows a cheaper way to add a serpentine system let me know.. (I have a first generation SBC). My thought was to decide on a compressor and use the condenser, evaporator, dryer which go's with system.. I've looked into an electric compressor but I have enough amperage blasting through my car already and I don't know what voltage thy run on.. I may switch over to a electric water pump to free up space but I 'm not sure. suggestions welcome !!! |

Things are working now, I have to get a fan speed switch and wire it to the resistor pack. I have the fan on medium as of now.. Its hot here in So Ca now, so this week should be a good time to test things out. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) I will likely just run the air out of a center combo vent but could plum to the outer factory locations with a little more work. Looks like I will have to pass into the trunk area from the center of the dash above the evaproator then wrap around to the outer vents. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif) |
