Hi All,

I just picked up a 71 Nova, and it didn't come with any heater hoses or anything in the engine compartment.

So does anyone have any pics or install advise for where the heater hoses are going to hook up to a big block?

And where does the heater control valve go?

I'm guessing it is vacuum powered, and the hoses for that come from the levers on the dash.

Thanks.

-Russell

Hi, yeah, that would be good for AC, but I was looking for heater hose, and regulator placement. Not AC stuff.

Thanks.

figure 9 shows heater hose and heater valve layout but not your vacuum actuator hook ups

Ah, I see.. so the intake side is "controlled" and the water pump side isn't! Thanks.
