<x-charset Windows-1252>My '69 has the BA4 but I've never pulled the engine and tranny to look closely at it! Anthony Baker has pictures on his website of his car: http://home.pacbell.net/abakr/notch.htm The blower mounts in a whole in the rear airbox next to the large main engine bellows! It then directs air through a plastic 'Y' and hoses into specially-made upper heat exchanger junctions with a flap in each of them to prevent the air from going the wrong way. Cars fitted with this option were a very special breed... The exhaust sytem, body and even chassis had special modifications, I imagine that they must have had a special production line for them! The coolest part of the whole sytem is the way you turn it on... When you pull the right-hand side heat control lever all the way up it contacts a switch that closes an open circuit. No dash switch is requirted although there is an indicator light on the dash almost identical to the brake warning light. Andre I seem to remember also seeing someones website where they had > photos of this installation. Anyone still know the link?. Does anyone know > how the blower was installed for a type3? I guess it would have to interface > to the "banana" tubes that go from the fan housing into the upper H/Es?
