He told me you did yours not to long ago. That's really cool Frank! I bet it was deja vu, LOL

Yep. Just did this on my 87 GT. Needed heater core. So replaced both while heater box was out. Also changed out the rest of the AC components under the hood. About two day job taking my time and referring to your videos. Thx !

@79beans347 3 года назад

That was some good info as usual, keep it coming every Sunday and Wednesday to keep your 2+year streak of not missing putting up new content going and that is a feat within itself that not many you tubers can say or boast about so I'll give you props on that because it takes serious dedication for that. I ordered my pushrods today and once they get here I can finish my motor and get it dropped in and I can't wait, I had to measure them with a pushrod checker to get the correct length on them being the engine is heavily modified and stock would no longer work but I found a good deal on a new hardened set that normally cost more than 100 bucks for 40 bucks so it was my lucky day 😁

@GearHead704 3 года назад

That is a good deal! I don't know if I keep the streak alive forever, but for now I'm still enjoying it as my hobby. One step closer for your build man 👊

@79beans347 3 года назад

@@GearHead704 yeah it would be hard to keep it going forever because life is going to happen or u may wake up one day and decide that you don't want to do it anymore (maybe not 😁) but yeah man I can almost see the checkered flag and I'm ready to drive it and take it to some car events like Ford takeover or hotrod power tour or something like that or maybe some car shows even though it is not ready to win one of those yet😂🤣 still got to work on the interior and paint but it will be there in all of her glory 😁

What’s interesting is I just installed an NOS evap and heater core in my ‘88, and the new Ford evap I bought years ago and have been sitting on DID come with the foam seals stuck to it like the original.

Just found this video very helpful I have 86 that was overheating and found the problem was my heater core which I will replace...but I have inop orginal A/C and need to convert from r12 to the current refrigerant...I want the heat but not ready for the conversion ($$$) considering that I will have to separate the box is still a good idea to plug the new evaporator till I'm ready to install new hoses condenser and compressor ...want to be driving this spring

Matt love the video that is one beautiful 4 eye and it's pretty cool that you have Matt from foxresto helping you with your build that guy is so full of knowledge and makes a lot of sense doing it the right right way the first time instead of cutting it up like I've seen other supposed informational videos and also directions on the evaporator core say to do I don't remember the brand but crazy when it's done right it last long like it's supposed to also. you're going to have one of the baddest of the bad SSPs and drop tops built right brother!!! Keep On Keepin On Buddy looking forward to your next video today... I got to this one a bit late thanks for the great informational entertainment I still learn something new from it every time which is pretty neat! I mean I know quite a bit but the little tedious things that Matt does (&has knowledge of) with that box by sealing it there correct way and everything makes a lot of sense along with all the other stuff that he helps out on or does...

Hey guys hate to sound stupid but what year Foxbody are you referring to when you say aero/arrow cars and why? I’ve never heard that term before.

There are no stupid questions Rick! Aero is typically referred to as 87-93 FoxBody's because for one thing they looked a bit more aerodynamic at the time.
