Post subject:  Where to drill through firewall? A/C installation

Hello. I am installing A/C on my 65 Dart GT. I am looking for recommendations and hopefully pictures as to where I should drill through the firewall. I bought the aftermarket kit that has the box that mounts under the center of the dash.

Thank you for your time.

What kind of A/C setup are you putting in?

Hello Dan. I purchased the Nostalgic Air Saden Kit. I'm using their supplied bracket.

Hello. Just checking to see if anyone has pictures or best location as to where to punch through the firewall for A/C line installation.

My installation uses Vintage Air parts and behind the dash location, but maybe this article about my '64 Valiant installation will help a little.

Thank you. Yes, this is helpful. I am keeping the factory heater core, so mine will be a bit different. Perhaps I cut through in the location where this person has re-routed the heater hoses.

I have a Clifford valve cover and the engine is out getting built, so it seems like I can't go any further until I get the engine in. The last thing I want to do is drill holes and then find that the valve cover is in the way of my line fittings.

Thank you very much, Charlie. This is extremely helpful. I will be following this setup when I install mine.
