MOUNTING VINTAGE AIR EVAP BOX WITHOUT BOLTS FOR A SMOOTH FIREWALL!

[@jessegonzalez7035]

I used the plate Vintage Air provides. I mounted from inside , I belt the top of the bracket inward and welded to role top of the dash and welds and L shape bracket and bolted that to the side vent where the plumbing comes in from vintage air.

That looks clean ! Extra work definitely pays off 💯🔥

I do a/c in cars i build interiors in & never drill the firewall. I make my own mounting plate/brackets from .090 5052 aluminum & urethane them in place the bolt the unit in 👍

Just what I needed. Gonna do this on my 79 Suburban that I shaved the firewall and don't want those ugly bolts going through.

Getting ready to install a vintage air setup on my non factory A/C 70 GTO LS 3 swap. I smoothed out the firewall. I was orginally going to mount the outer cover plate on the inside firewall. Thinking To make a rigid support and then have threaded studs come out to mount the evap bracket. But now from watching your video i realize no access to bolts when mounted. I am gonna try your bracket design. It Looks simpler amd i can elimate the plate cover...sometimes i over think on my setup. You did the trial and error stages . Just makes my job easier now...thanks for sharing your video..

Great idea, only thing I would change is to weld the nut on the inside of the bracket so you only need 1 wrench in that tight spot

Don't worry I did the same to my pretty red smooth fire wall on my black chevelle with 2 ugly bolts
