Re: [Amc-list] Hornet evap

[Wrambler242@xxxxxxxxxxx]

Won't be no flare fittings!
All AN O-ring.
Aftermarket condensor with proper sized lines too.

I'll have to look at the evap unit I have then decide. If I can get it gathered up I'll mock it up to my spare American Heater box to see what is what.

There's not a lot of space to fit anything with out messing around or hanging it underneath.

I thought you would have some experience with this stuff :]
