going all out on that 69 heater ?

[butters68]

great thanks tyson. yup. robyn I've got my new console waiting to go in, got to have heater unit in to fit it .

[butters68]

so I've got my 69 heater box ready to be put back together,its been some time since i took it apart.
i new i might forget how it came apart so i picked up 70's unit to help refresh my mind. one thing that jumped out [ not a spider] was the fan, the 69 is metal the 70's unit is plastic. i got pics, just need to find a way to get them onto my new mini mac. old camera not worky with new mini.

i could have gotten some o ring from work to fix leak ,but i like new stuff .

Braver than I, pulling apart that valve. i wimped out and paid with a brownie for a nos 68. so this 69 hybrid will give you the squirrel and cowl dump ?

[butters68]

robyn, i have a new 68 valve still, well the whole heater box . not going to use it so if you need a spare let me know.

[butters68]

it only took like 10 mins to do the swap, it is quite easy to do.
