Just getting done with a V8 swap, found that my heater core is shot...options are replace it @ $300-$400 and still have heat only or upgrade to an ac/heat system (which was in the plan...just not quite yet, $$$$$)
Winter is on its way, all the wonderful info in the forums say that a stock heat system holds 4-7 lbs of pressure and with a V8 it wouldn't hold up for long anyway.
I am looking for anyone who has installed an ac/heat system of any kind to respond how well it works and if there were any problems with the install.
Searching the web, 3 companies keep coming up. Vintage Air, Classic Auto Air, and Old Air Products. All 3 seem comparable, little things like the controls and defrost ducts seem to be the difference.
Just curious who has used these companies and which has the best results........'
Please chime in with any info, spending $1200-1800 would be easier if I knew I would be happy with the results. Thanks!
