AC only blows at my feet and the vent???

Working on a 2002 WS6. Did a motor swap, and pulled the tranny and turbo off the car, and now for some reason the AC only blows at my feet and the top vents. Whats the deal. I double and tripple checked the little vacuum line on the rear of the intake. Any suggestions guys. The car only has 39K miles. Do I need that little vacuum "T".? Can I take it out and run the vacuum line from the intake into the car..?

The vacuum line that you triple checked should be the only culprit I'm aware of that an engine swap would effect? Good luck!

there is a little T-fitting right by the PCM, it cracks easily, had to replace mine.

One time my old 97 only blew air to my feet, I pulled the AC controls in the dash and noticed a line behind the controls was unplugged. Plugged it up and it worked fine..

Fixed!!! Damn, I looked and looked and couldnt find anything wrong. But, I pulled the line off of the back of the intake and replaced the whole line from the intake to the firewall over behind the pcm, and started the car and damn, all fixed... Woohooo. Thanks guys..
