Default A/C and Fuel Stuff

The last two evap. mock up tubes are over at the tube shop.



I checked the fit and except for a couple of small interferences, it all looks pretty good. With it tightened on the bench, I can remove the bulkhead and put it all in the car pretty easily.





I keep using my bicycle holder for various tasks. At first I thought it wasn’t a good idea, but for odd shaped things it really helps so I am going to keep using it.



I put the Vintage air conversion kit on the control panel. This was an easy job you can do at the kitchen counter while watching TV.





I started plugging in wires to figure out where I will route all this stuff. The answer is I don’t know yet.



Moving on to the fuel system, all the little bits and pieces came in. I figured I could find a 37 degree flaring tool locally but I was wrong. I should have ordered it online. I pieced all the fittings together and again started thinking about where all the wires are going to route. I also put the first piece of Tech AFX fuel hose together and I really like the quality of their product. There will be a short section of hose between the tank and ½ stainless fuel line.





For all the wires, I am thinking about putting a small auxiliary fuse box in the trunk, in addition to the GM EFI harness in the RF engine compartment. I have several areas I need to pass harnesses through the body. I haven’t decided if I want to use just a simple grommet, or spring for nice MS style circular connectors. I have a lot to think about.
