I installed the heat exchangers on the six , all flappers and hoses installed with the exception of the blower tube. The output for the blower is capped.
I started he car and let it idle for 25 minutes and no heat . Do I need the blower on the six exchangers ? Where can I get these j tubes? |

QUOTE(914itis @ May 18 2015, 05:46 AM)  No , that a why I mentioned that the blower fan is not connected You will need the fan hoses and ducts. They push air from the fan through the heat exchangers then into the cabin. Much like the type 4's. You can usually get a set of ducts with a wtb on pelican or buy repros. A used set that needs some clenup is usually $100-125. Then sell your fan block off plates for around $75. |

Electric fan - no Engine fan - yes Ther are tons of threads on pelican about backdating the heat. It is easier on a 914 than a 911. |
