Re: Vintage Air System Problem

We also widened the opening to increase the amount of air on the passenger side (where this vent is obviously located). We then mounted it under the dash at the opening. The last photo shows the vent tube attached. This gives us plenty of room for attaching the hoses.Our next project will be to replace the fire wall bulkhead that came with the Vintage Air kit. I do not think the black one will look right on my fire wall so we are going to have one made at Race Tech (local shop that builds race cars as well as restores classic cars-they are a full fledge machine shop and make a lot of their own parts) using polished aluminum. The thing I do not like about the 4 way square and straight line bulk heads you can purchase from them is that you have to have new hoses made up to use with these. The tubing that comes with the kit will not mate up with this part because they all have male screw fittings. More to follow next week on this.
