I don't really like the whirl sound of a flex fan but I didn't know they worked so good.It would seem like a 17A fan would be plenty on an old alt.with a clutch fan too.- Original Message - From: Youngblood, Skip (T&K at Alcoa) To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Sent: Friday,

I pondered this at one time for my 69BB. I quickly found out that it would not be worth the trouble. The way I understand it the firewall in a AC car is quite different from a non AC. When I do go with AC it will be Vintage air. I think in the long run it will save in just frustration factor

I'd say it'll be a tough job to convert a non-factory A/C car to factory-style A/C. You'd be better off (although MUCH more expense) to go with a Vintage Air kit. They work very well and installation is a breeze. Darrell Spencer -Original Message- From: Tigergutt [mailto:[EMAIL PRO

To all, Russell Braided brake lines are a very good product. I would highly recommend them to everyone. Replacing the small rubber brake line hoses which go to the calipers and the drums, will improve your braking. I like the way the brakes feel. Everyone I know that has installed these brai
