if i decide to remove my A/C from my 92 what is involved after removing the a/c stuff...is there a different heater core or do i just remove the a/c box and bolt on the oem header box.

thanks....

 

its as simple as ubolting the a/c box and bolting in the heater box, after that alittle wiring to the resistor block on the new box and you are done.

 

will heater controls from a heat only car swap too or is the in- car part of the box different? I would like to get rid of my controls that say a/c if its gone.

thanks.

 

Very interested in this post, as i have a non ac box and delete pulley, as well as some non ac controls on the way. I have heard that the controls are cable actuated instead of vaccuum actuated (like the ac controls)? Is this true? Also, will i then need a new setup on the inside under the dash to match the non ac controls? If anyone has any info on a car that originally came without ac, i would love to have part numbers etc. This is in an 88 firebird by the way. I understand there are less ducts and i'm not too concerned about that i just want to be able to use the new controls instead of having the ones that say ac still.

The non-AC stuff is cable controlled; here's the complete set-up:


I think you only need to change the main box, not the piece that is attached to the dash itself.

Changing out just that box *should* allow air to come out the side vents when the selector is in the 'VENT' position - the non-AC cars didn't have those side vents; the Camaro had the openings molded over, while the Firebirds had snap-in covers. The main boxes will interchange between the Camaro/Firebird, and the main piece attached to the dash is the same also, but the piece directing air to the center vents is different.
If you need some part numbers, I have two of these setups on hand (possibly 3, but I forget where the third might be) to check...

screw it, ill live w/ controls that say a/c
