light weight full function heater the fan was $53 and is @ 150cfm at 5A
the plate is BMR w/ holes for the water pipes cut and mounting holes for my new blower shroud made from aluminum.
this retains full '****' function of the heat. you may opt to seal off the fresh air vent under the cowl in the passenger corner. i did not weigh anything but its about half the weight and no mess in the engine bay. the blower is wired to the factory blower plug.

getting rid of 'non value added' weight certainly.. where is affordable and safe.
with this i drop some weight, get some room under the dash, get a ton of elbow room in the engine bay, and i lose nothing at all but the rest of the a/c i all ready didn't have
in addition to this there is new repro carpet going in around the cage that is a little lighter.. and i would LOVE to get my hands on a fab 9" rear with a lower gear and drop some weight over my 12 bolt. nobody wants to build me one my way though. (3 channel by april 1)

i would rather not make another one unless you make it very interesting for me.
i all ready have the dash and stuff bolted back in on top of it all.

That is for the windshield since it likes to fog up when cold and I also have two of the walmart $15 ceramic heaters that I ran last fall which work really well. The fan pulls 55cfm which if it isn't enough I'll upgrade, but I think it will work and cost me $10. I also still use the stock heater fan controls, but I have my lines ran a little different since it's an lt1 and I tucked them(hidden) to keep the clean engine bay.
