Installing a rear heater blower in my 72. Car came with no blower or mount. I need a pic of the blower mounted in the proper location in a 72. Thanks

i got no phot for you, but if you have the haynes manual it is picured on page 18 fig. 5.4 and page 17 fig 1.8 (pages from 1989 edition of book, pages may vary with different editions)

basically it goes to the left of the oil filler cap with a brakct to teh fan house and a support bracket to the case near the aux air valve.

later cars had the fan mounted on a welded in bracket to teh body near the relay plate.

Early cars had a bolted on bracket on the front of the engine ...

Some of the shots on my engine building page show that bracket pretty well: http://ephotomotion.com/914engine/page43.html

Curious...
Do you have heat now?
Is there some funky way to adapt the little 6 you have with the heater tubes?

No heat right now other than the radiant heat from the oil-lines ...
