Well after a long break with a busy summer I've been back working on this quiet a bit.
I got the new radiator installed and new heater core.
I got back to tuning the LS swap with the new cam and parts etc. I still have a ways to go with this and for some reason the torque converter does not want to lock up for me. So to keep the transmission alive while I work on that issue, I installed a beefy transmission cooler with fan and temp switch
And since I have significant ADHD I started working on the last major component for the interior, the AC. My truck has a Clardy factory original unit that I am going to use so I flushed out the evaporator with a whole can of brake cleaner and compressed air etc, it was coming out disgusting brown and green at first but eventually was clean fluid coming out so I think its in good shape. I got the interior parts all installed and hoses run through the firewall with bulkhead connectors. Most of the engine bay hoses are completed but I had to rethink my plan a bit on routing and order a few more adapters. I didn't very good photos of all of that but here's the completed dash.
The blower motor resistor which was functioning well blew out the low speed resistor while I was testing the AC clutch wiring so I'll have to see about fixing that. I'm thinking I can buy a "universal" blower motor resistor and remove the resistor coils from that and solder them onto the switch in this unit. Its not like I can go buy a Clardy part any more. So if any of you guys have any other ideas on that I'm all ears.
