hatepotholez Posted April 14, 2015 Share #1 Posted April 14, 2015 Hello everyone. Before I put the dash in, I wanted to do the HVAC system. As usual everything is scattered and I have no hardware. My questions: -Bolt sizes for the Heater and A/C system?-Can I install the A/C system at a later time?-best way to refurb the HVAC parts(blower motor assy box and heater core, condenser units), should I degrease and wash out?-Foam recommendations for the blend door and such?-Is black duct tape to seal little cracks in the vent tubing? Any suggestions or tips would be greatly appreciated! Thanks! Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/51308-putting-together-hvac-system/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
madkaw Posted April 14, 2015 Share #2 Posted April 14, 2015 Common metric thread size on the bolts holding in the unit.YES- wash that puppy down. I used foamed back headliner stuff from Joanne Fabrics and glued it down good.Lube up any hinge points.Vent tubes can probably be found cheap enough used to replace bad ones. I have a few extra.AC can be done afterwards 1 Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/51308-putting-together-hvac-system/#findComment-467702 Share on other sites More sharing options...

240260280z Posted April 29, 2015 Share #4 Posted April 29, 2015 I like the foil backed duct tape. Wash all piping. Vinegar kills mold. Seal everything. Lubricate all moving parts and cable internals. 1 Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/51308-putting-together-hvac-system/#findComment-468833 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurbycar32 Posted April 29, 2015 Share #5 Posted April 29, 2015 I documented my HVAC installation. The AC is still work in progress but i finished all of the in-dash parts https://sites.google.com/a/thecomputerrehab.com/260z/Interior/blower-box-rebuild 1 Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/51308-putting-together-hvac-system/#findComment-468898 Share on other sites More sharing options...

The AC is still work in progress but i finished all of the in-dash parts https://sites.google.com/a/thecomputerrehab.com/260z/Interior/blower-box-rebuild Thanks for this, this is exactly what I was looking for. Since I don't have that much time with college and such, I prefer to buy everything online or Amazon and get the parts and go straight to work. This to me is better than spending half of a day running to stores looking for stuff.
