I realize you do t want to “release it” in entirety until after the show(s) but it would be cool to have a virtual tour to see it all at once.
Thanks Stuka, That would be appreciated!
I think it may if its clocked down more. But the output is the same distance away from center line otherwise.
Volume of air from vents is good, because the Vintage Air vents were so small they fit perfectly in that small space just above the bottom of dash which is pretty much where the oem Jeep evap was but really haven't had a chance to drive it in hot weather,
I love how clean the install is and how it looks almost factory. My only concern was you would end up with hot/cold knees like factory lol! Really don't want to add vents up high in the dash though, aside from the ashtrays I haven't seen a really clean factory appearing way that I like lol! Your build is spot on perfect though, one of my absolute favorites!sonoraed wrote:Volume of air from vents is good, because the Vintage Air vents were so small they fit perfectly in that small space just above the bottom of dash which is pretty much where the oem Jeep evap was but really haven't had a chance to drive it in hot weather,
When it comes to AC and what works and how it feels boils down to cold air blowing toward the driver and passenger torso no matter how well insulated and tinted the cab is you will never cool the interior down to an acceptable level on a really hot day.
So back to the concept of AC venting, Vintage Air makes under dash panels with vents that would have worked fine if painted to match the dash and looked much like the factory AC evap or a good metal man could have fabricated a dash extension below the dash to accept bigger vents, I have a buddy that does this all the time in Hot Rods, but the vents we used as far as I know have never been used in this application and the plenums behind the dash are just metal tubes with adapters for the flex hose from the Gen IV evap so was worth a try just to be a little different.
I don't know much about Advance Adapters,trans is from Novak something I bought years ago before we did the build and was set up for a D20, the transfer case is the same one I used behind the original TH400 (was a quadratrac at one time) had Moose's Mountain Jeep rebuild it with a Novak OH kit, first few test drives after we got J10 running had a lot of clanging from the drive train driving down the road at 50-60 mph in 4th gear with original diff gears and no lock up TQ engaged.

Strange, I have used it for many vehicles and its always matched right on. When you are going 35 per your speedo, does GPS from your phone say the same speed? Perhaps the speedometer is off?
To be honest haven't spent the time needed to be super accurate about the numbers, I normally use my radar detector to set up speedometers I'll go and check it today, last couple of months have been nuts,got a new hangar I've waited 17 years, then the plane went thru the annual from hell and next week it goes to northern Oregon for a GPS navcom, busy at the shop with AC installs and my wife just retired and has long list of honey do's, don't have time to die from the Wuhan
