AC Removal
So the previous owner went about removing the AC, and I am not fully sure on what else is left to be removed. Take a look at the attached pic and tell me what you think?

Re: AC Removal
Need a farther back pic, but so far it looks like he disconnected lines to the ac pulley unit, and to the canister.

Re: AC Removal
I am just curious if there is a way to clean up this mess.. the lines are dislodging my valve cover breather and its getting nice and oily on my manifolds.

Re: AC Removal
you can remove the big black plastic thing on the firewall.
and replace it with just a heater box and blower motor.
dont pay more then $60 for a heater box everybody wants $100 for the damn things....lol.hell i only pay $8 for them at the parts yard.. sold lots of them..
anyway.. it will take about 45 min for you to remove the big ugly box.
and replace it.. if you have never done one..if ya cant get the motore with the heater box.. you can cut your plastic fan down by 1"inch and it will work just fine.. easy easy
