[...] This thread has me thinking. There is a big space up front on air cooled Vanagons. Would you be able to fit a BA6 up there? I will have BEHR front AC shortly and the evaporator will be behind the front grille, so it will have to cohabitate with the BA4. Any thoughts? ---- snip ---- here is what I have done on my 78 when I got it there was a non functioning A/C and a fully rusted out heat system. So I removed most of the A/C system, put a BA-4 (from a 412) under the front of the bus on the evaporator brackets, reconfigured the A/C blower system to draw air from under the dash and duct it to the under bus heater. The output from the heater was ducted back into the stock heater duct just behind the front beam. The entire stock heat system from the front beam back has been totally removed. I get good heat and plenty of airflow.... Bob
