OK - I have to confess, I know very little about AC systems. Just enough to be dangerous. You'll have explain what you mean by "drain line". I might interpret that to be the drain from the cabin HVAC unit. The following photos start at the rear (AC compressor) and go forward. What you are after is probably at the front, maybe near the fuel tank area. Let me know exactly what you're looking for.

Compressor with fuel cooler



Connection #2 just above bank #2 of the engine.



Connection #3 near the RR jack point.



I didn't shoot anything forward of this, specific to the AC system. I did remove the front undertray and took 10 lbs of dirt out of the car. So I've got that going for me...

I think he means the condensate drain from the evaporator.

Hey Yaz -
I've been using this product at about 5% solution:
For hardware and smaller items, I have usually put gasoline in little plastic jars and tossed them in the bath. With a smaller vessel, you have many solvent options. I would imagine you could just use water with Simple Green or Dawn dish soap for most cleaning.

Agree. I mentioned how little I know about AC systems.

Hell I live in Michigan, after all. Most of my cars get the AC yanked out to save weight. Learning much about them was never a priority.

So this is what you're looking for. You'll want to get access to whatever would be near a passenger's left foot. This is looking rearward.



Same area looking forward.

Bill, the A/c condensation drain is the little nipple sticking down between the two lines in the middle of the picture.

This thread has become my favorite on the "list". Lots of neat little tidbits, not "just" the build, which is great by itself.
I'm giving it the full 5 stars. Keep it going everyone.

PS...I take it the post office didn't make the delivery yet? I haven/t heard on my end.

Thank you, not what I expected to see and would have missed it.
Scott, thank you and sorry I wasn't clear. My knowledge of the AC system starts and stops at the dash buttons...
I too look forward to these daily updates, great topic!

Nothing, so far.

It was fun swinging by today, and the heads look great prior to reassembly!

No way my cab would survive without AC to dry out the interior.. Its too wet in Oregon..

Alright bitches - you'll be pleased to know I listened.

The main sprocket is now pinned to the IMS.



There's still a little fine-tuning that needs to take place. When the pins are flush externally, they interfere with the IMSS stud. I pushed them out a little to be sure the stud mount will have clearance. I'll probably grind off some of what protrudes so there will be no fouling of the cam chain.



Thankfully, the postal service 'cares'. A package arrived from Arizona. It might need something a little more secure to make sure it gets back home...



Thanks, Gary! And thanks to the rest of you guys that are helping me along...

Holy Moley...that was my bad Scott. Trying to save a little money in the process, also had other things on my mind. I'm so glad it got to you and the work looks great. Heck, I gonna bring my motor to your house and have you rebuild that for me, I can probably afford a beer or two for the labor

Scott at Team Harco

No worries, mate. It got here. That's the main thing. It will get back in the same shape (not the packaging).
You've got a lot going. Take care of yourself and keep your stick on the ice.

Beer is pretty good barter around here. You might need to bring an entire brewery though...

latonnelier

Just dawned on me why you like the duct tape so much

Scott at Team Harco

Good stuff - thanks for posting that.

That's right - the handyman's helper.
And if the women don't find you handsome, they should at least find you handy.
