ac delete box

i'm finally gonna un-clutter my engine compartment with a a/c delete pulley and rip all that stuff out. my question is if i can just use the stock a/c box for the heat still and not have to get a ac delete box

Re: ac delete box

yes u can but i would recomend getting a AC delete box. it will really give u alot more room around that side of the motor.... for like the last couple header bolts etc.

Re: ac delete box

they do, they screw into the radiator. they're a lot smaller than the AC lines so you shouldn't be able to mess that up

Re: ac delete box



trans lines arent actually cooler lines... they recurculate the fluid in the tranny resovour in the the radiator... which is GMs definition of a trans cooler lol. it does help so it works and u could call those lines trans cooler lines but its not a dedicated cooler.

the trans lines are the only 2 lines together on the pass side of the engine they are 5/16" and attach to the radiator on the pass side, one on the top and one towards the bottom, u cant really mess it up
