I dont know if it is mentioned in the thread but you can keep the a/c box for the heater. I havent done mine yet but I heard you can have custom lines made and also make the a/c work.

I didnt keep mine, took out the box and the evaporator, I put a piece of sheet metal over the hole and the heater still works though, I wish I would have left the box but it just takes up so much space.

How about getting rid of the heater and keeping the AC? I'll be doing something similar soon. Same car too 1995 V6, A4. Is yours red? My friends taking the 350 out of his van because of rod knock. He's giving it to me. I'm planning the build right now. It might be a while because I have to get my other one done first.

im thinkin about doing a BBC in my old 94 v-6 car???? anyone got anything for that.

i keep going back and forth in the idea. and almost for the cost of a nice built 650-800 HP BBC i can drop a 5.3L and turbo in it swap pistons and rods and crank up the boost????

those are the demons in my head.

good luck bro on your build.

I was going to do the swap, but my 89 Needs the T56 more than my 95. Next year it should be LSx powered.
