You can make holes for the water lines to go from the pump, if you'd like to retain the heat.

Those are niece pieces, but I personally wouldn't pay that money for something that's so easy to make.

Here's a home made example with a hole left to run the heater core.

And another..

that's exactly how i wanna do it. i just am too lazy to remove the motor again lol

Jonathan · 10-17-2011, 10:56 AM

I've read a few posts that people have been able to do this with the motor in.

I'm sure it was a easy to do.. lol

I'd be interested in buying the whole a/c system.. box and all if it's not destroyed taking it out

I'll sell it really cheap since I didn't have any future plans with it.
Since you're interested, i'll pull it out in one piece then.

The air blew COLD when I used it. Took the condenser, dryer, compressor and lines off less than a week ago.
