'77 T/A to '81 TurboT/A = A/C swap possible?!?
One of the previous owners of my '81 Turbo Trans Am (now a Pontiac 400) had thrown out all the A/C components probably when he swapped in the '76 400 engine.
All that remains is the fiberglass A/C housing and the hard lines that come out of it....heater and blower motor are still in place and are functional. I have a lead on a '77 Firebird with a 400 being parted that has all it's A/C componenents still in place. Could I swap all the A/C stuff from that '77 car onto my '81 ?!? I've been looking at many photo's here on the forum, especially of those showing Firebirds with the A/C lines and compressor removed. Seems like the lines that come out of the fiberglass A/C housing have different bends on earlier ('77-78) Birds compared to later TurboT/A's. Can I make this swap work? Do I need different A/C lines, other parts or what? Thanks!!!
