another a/c delete set of ??? - Third Generation F-Body Message Boards

ok i have pulled all my a/c stuff out, and currently i have the two holes exposed on the firewall. Before i put the delete box on i have some questions.

I have read on here that i should get a non-ac blower motor, and that the wiring for the motor is different on a/c motors, do i really need to get a non a/c motor? would a new non a/c impeller work on the old motor? and i do i need to reconnect the motor cooling tube onto the box?

oh and if i did need to get a new non a/c motor do they still make the pigtail connections for it so that i would just splice it in place of the old a/c plug?

thx

When I did mine, The old blower motor didn't fit the Ac delete box, it was too big. The Ac Delete box uses a smaller blower motor. Also when I did mine, The blower motors used the same connector.

is there any differences between an 88 and a 90 in those parts/wiring?

and where did you get your box from, mines from hawks

When I put the A/C delete box in my '85, I re-used all the wiring that originally went to the A/C box.
You do need to get a non-A/C motor, and you do need to reconnect the cooling tube, but the one from your A/C box won't work.

hehe ok next question would be where should i get an updated cooling hose and where do i hook it into?

It hooks up just like it did on the A/C box.
I don't think anyone makes reproductions, so you'll need to buy an original or look in a junkyard. Chances are, if you find one in a junkyard, it'll have the entire A/C delete box and all required components attached to it.

dang, i'll have to try the dealerships the junkyards around here have had all their 3rd gens stripped of hvac stuff including boxes, but i might get lucky i'll check again

ok i have been looking for a new non a/c motor online and have come up with some options, but does anyone know the Delco part # that has the two prong wiring connector but is non a/c? i think it might be 1580666 but can't get a look at the motor body in any pics
