Looks Awesome! I definitely want to smooth my firewall! What are you doing with the hole on the passenger side since you dont have a heater box on the firewall?

I just ordered the engine and trans harness from speartech,evaporator kit from vintage air the master and booster from ssbc .theras a pic of the mount plate on this page near the compressor bracket.this setup is going to be tight , dont make any holes until you are sure of everything fitting. my engine / frame mount is a weird combo but you might have to use some kind of spacer up front for oil pan / steering clearence john

Where are the updates? Can you put up some pics of your AFCO radiator...? I was looking at getting one for my 67. How's the fit and finish? Are the side tanks stamped or fabricated? Where is the filler located? PICS PICS PICS PICS? Oh, and how about some pics?
