I removed my a/c system.. im having a hard time figuring out what to do now... that part located ron the passenger side fire wall in the engine bay... When i pulled out the A/C Evaporator Core in the plastic box that vents into the cab there was a plastic top piece that screwed on top of the box but a big slotted hole in front the box allowing the pipes to connect to the hoses and a piece of foam to stop air flow put that foam was held in place by the A/C Evaporator Core that i removed is there a new case i should replace to house the fan in and just put a piece of sheet metal on the fire wall where that hole is no longer needed im talking about a 6"x"6 square hole roughly.. the plus to doing that would be that it would make more room in the bay looking neater and less cluttered.. But i dont know if i can get a box like that or if theres a way to seal the box ???? its a 1984 camaro berlinetta. thatnks guys

I have often wondered about this kind of thing, I thought a heater only assembly off of an older car might work, since the older AC units look a lot like the 3rd gen AC units. I know a man that restores 60's vets for a living I'll see what he says about it.

I look forward to hearing back on it.. i will soon take some pictures for those of you who cant image what im asking about.

LOOK HERE !!!!!!!!..............

This is what u are looking for , correct ?!

I was going to say, AC delete plate???? I think that's what he's looking for.

Nope..

that sounds like it makes sense as to what im looking for.. would you happen to have a link showing a picture ??

it's pretty much a flat piece of metal that covers the opening....you won't have a fan either though, so no heater.
What you could also do is find a heater/fan box from a car with no factory AC and put that in as well, then you would have a blower fan....

Before u say NO so fast,,,i would scroll down a little on the e-bay page ,,,the have the plates on there aswell !!!!

But ,,never mind.

oh, I see, second one down on the page...missed it the first time...that's what I was talking about....a box for cars without factory AC.....cool that one is available.

I didnt know what it was to look like but i think your onto the right idea!
BUT!!! my car is a 1984 camaro berlinetta that box second down fit my year but not for the model of the car ?? or would it fit ??

82 92 camaro firebird ac delete heater box a/c heat gm!
Thanks for the help!

I believe that all 82-92 f bodies should fit that...your model is camaro....the berlinetta is just a trim package.

HAHA okay shows how much i know :P honestly this is my first project car and besides this new found interest in rebuilding a street/strip car i have never done work on a car.. but i did check that product and your correct! thank you very much! you were very helpful..

Your all very welcome !!!!!!!!

but to tell u the truth,,,i just bought my Camaro last week. LOL

NICE! yes i just bought mine i didn't care what was wrong with it my plan is to gut the car and rebuild it from the ground up dub it out for better traction and put a 383ci stroker in it as well as new suspension, transmition and rear end and a cowl 6" hood and well of course some Mickey Thompsons.. I have only had this car for 2 weeks drove it to my house from an hr+ away for only $750.. im in the middle of taking it apart and deciding what goes and what stays but ill keep it all until its replaced so i dont forget about any parts.. the electrical on this car has been tampered with as if the wiring from factory wasn't bad enough its like a spaghetti factory this berlinetta is going to be a lot of work! My next question to ask is the top dash board that detaches in this car its about 1 inch thick and its the top piece of the dash and on the driver side the corner edge has been damaged i was wondering if any one would know a good place to look for a replacement.. thanks again for you help!

E-BAY !!!!!!!!! they realy have allot of stuff, but the dash is not cheap.

The heater pieces are called "AC Delete Box"

There's also many sponsors on here as well - click their ads - Thirdgen Ranch, Hawks, Top Down Solutions, A1 Auto, etc.

And don't forget the classifieds here as well!

What do you mean by sponsors? like people that will donate stuff for you project ?? and thanks for the tip

HAHAHA,,,wouldn't that be cool

Yeah - that would be cool! No - sponsors as in TGO site sponsors - they pay for ad space here, and thus are TGO sponsors.

But - if they are watching - sponsoring a few cars along the way won't upset any of us I'm sure! {hint hint}

That would be so cool ! haha man i wont be able to do much work to this car except take it apart and learn how everything goes back together i wont be putting much money into it until next year

DAMN,,,,next year ???? THATS ALOT OF TIME !!!!!! HAHA

No... They donate money to this site so they can promote they're businesses within it...

Just a lil heads up, punctuation is an amazing thing... You should check into it...

Damn my slow typing!!! haha

Peas and Thank You


84 zoom - You should pick one of these discs up from www.fbodycd.com... It has a 100x more information then any other shop manual... It'll help you with anything and everything along the way of your rebuild... Could've saved alot of holes in my wall if I would've known about it sooner, haha...

Yea.. I know But this being the first time i under go any work on a car, besides car audio. Iv never even changed my own oil before.. lol
So im going to take this year to learn to take out the engine..
I have been doing a lot of studying, i now have a good idea how that engine works and all its parts.
So over the next year i plan to take things apart and as needed, I'll be able to purchase the necessary tools..
When it come to that time, I'll know what im doing and now where ever screw goes.. In hopes that all the new parts won't get damaged as i install most of it myself!
I hope my punctuation is a bit better for all of you ;P
Grammar was never my strong point :P

Thanks for the awesome tip! I will take any information i can get my hands on!

i might be reading it wrong but he's my idea

if im correct there's now a hole in your engine bay now right? so im thinking maybe you could get a airdam and place it right behind the hole so it directs cool air into the engine bay. its just a rough idea im sure there is more you could do i think it would would help a bit with cooling. it might be a stupid idea but something to think about.

You should win an award for how wrong you read that... haha

Oh trust me - we all know. I've had mine for 4 years now, still working on her, still sinking money into her. I'm about 90% done with what I wanted to accomplish - but it's taken me 4 years and $13,000 to get here. It's like everything else, when I have the money I don't have the time, and visa versa. But, if I had a new car for the last 4 years, I'd spent way more than that in insurance premiums and monthly payments, and wouldn't have had any fun.

They say no pain no gain right? Well, I'm in pain now for her. She's back at the paint shop getting touch ups and color matching between the plastic nose and the metal car right now, leaving me with only the motorcycle as transportation - and with the temps at 19 when I go to work in the morning, I'm definitely hurtin' while she's getting dolled up! Brrrr!

So true! i think it works like that because when u have money and no time thats probably because your working more ;P my transportation is trans link bus and sky train and bus again lol my transportation per month taking the bus is just over $100 as appose too nearly $ 700 per month when i had my dodge dakota on the road between gas and insurance.. Ill be able to save money really quick towards this project it just sucks not being able to have that freedom of getting up and cruising around.. but im going to take that saying of yours!! i need to believe that in order to keep up this motivation and hard work! "They say no pain no gain right?" well im in pain ! but only for the gain of having an 11 sec car when im done that will turn all heads and probably get me lots of head to haha wow can't wait just to take it out to the race way every friday will be awesome! defiantly going to do some road trips! you have to want it bad if its going to happen!
