Turning an A/C Swinger into a non A/C Swinger

HEY! Your going to need a pulley for the water pump since the Alt. belt will rub on the water pump. Look at (SP!) Buchillon advertised in the mags for pulleys. I'm at this exact point myself.

After that, I'm not to sure, but I have read elsewhere that the fire walls are different.

Rumble, I have the Bouchillon kit sitting on my bench as I write. Managed to plan ahead for once!

I failed to ask Eberg exactly what the difference is in the firewall (should have!) configuration but he seemed pretty sure about it. I usually take his word on things like that, he knows his stuff.

Homecloned, your explanation sounds fairly reasonable. That would be an easy solution.

I'm sort of leaning on ditching the whole system though, heater core and all. I doubt I'll be driving the car in real cold weather much anyway. The defrost is what I'm mostly concerned with losing but that would be irrelevant without the heater core.

There's a guy on Moparts that sells machiined blower motor block off plates for relatively cheap. Thought about one of those but it's not the factory look I'm after. If someone has a factory blower motor delete plate they don't want, I'm interested!
