Default Backdating heat

I've seen the older posts on backdating.
Is there anyone currently on the site that has backdated their SC heat? I'd like to chat with you about it.

Pretty simple. I got the bolt on piece for the shroud, and some hose to run down to the exchangers. I'd removed the big blower at the back, and used Mystery Train's write up on Pelican to jumper the rear circuit to enable the footwell blowers to still work.

Thanks Ed....looks like a deal, be nice to see that side of the motor .... not like heat is a major issue in Az or Cali...had an older German guy tell me to just delete the whole deal..."Vear a schvetter" was his advice.

You can see pics of her in the Ruby Rebuild Redux thread. I never used the heat, but the main thing I found a need for was defrost, if driving on cold mornings. The size of the 911 cabin is such that windshield fogging can be an issue. Foggy conditions could be bad too.
