Ok guys heres the thing. Im into real clean and simple when it comes to my rides. Im shaving the firewall on my S10 truck and Im swapping the brake booster to a hyrdaboost system and hiding it behind the dash. I also want to hide the a/c heater box behind the dash. Is there a stock a/c heater box I can use or am I going to have to fab something up? I would like to use something thats already made if possible, modifying it would be alright though. So anyone have any recommendations?
There are a lot of aftermarket units that mount under the dash. Street roders use them all the time. Vintage air is one that comes to mind.

By the way Welcome to CHR
if i was gonna move my heater and ac, i'd fab something up and put it in the bed of the truck and run it through the cab somehow. they make trunk ac unites i know. sure would help looks wise under the hood and dash.Quote:

could even put the hydra boost under the floor on the rails with a little work, granted, the pedal would have to come thru the floor alsoQuote:

lt1 - Do you know who makes the trunk mount kits?
Matt - Ive actually thought of doing that just like my 53, but my truck has a 3.5" stock floor body drop, so basically my frame rails are 3" tall box tubing so I dont think it will fit. But I havent actually gotten under there to see if it will work or not.
not really. i've seen them, but don't know if it was store bought or something fabricated. it dont take much heat or ac for a s10. i would think vintage air could tell you if they know of one i'd call them.Quote:
