I'm at the point of beginning my Vintage Air install on my 63 Chevy II wagon. I've got a Heidts mustang II front clip and plan on running my ac lines between my inner and outer fenders. I was thinking about using a straight bulkhead at the firewall and a diamond shape one at the inner fender into the engine bay. A buddy of mine has suggested not using one at the inner fender coming into the engine bay to cut down on potential leaks. Are bulkheads that leak prone? Fwiw i plan on using ez clip clips and hose. Just trying to get a game plan and any advice is appreciated, thanks.

II Much has a neat solution for routing hoses through the firewall.

I like that Andrew. A little pricey but definitely cut down on potential leaks. Thanks

I got this bulkhead in my AC kit, but in the end decided against using it. The IImuch unit is designed to use the very rigid E-Z clip type hose for the AC and the heater hose as well. I found that hose to be impossible to install on the 5/8" heater fittings, the hose is just to rigid and to much of an interference fit.

I'm not finished with my install yet so if I'm missing something, please educate me.

I've never used this, but you should get in touch with Jon U. at IIMuch and see what he has to say.
