'72 Sport custom

Anyone know of a article or information for the removal of the "original" under dash vent system to replace a heater core. Have a 360, .030 over with all factory a/c system. My manuals say,
"you need to take this to a qualified mechanic due to the exceptional large work that is involved in this removal". Any info will be helpful. Have to
replace heater core to get a/c working.

thanking you in advance.

DC, I have a complete Air unit sitting on the ground for a 1972 F-250
It `looks` like there 3 bolts that hold it to the firewall...
Remove the glove box... disconnect the cables from the dash control unit....disconnect the electrical.... disconnect the heater hoses and drain tube and (not sure if you have to ) disconnect the refrig lines ....disconnect the Vent connection ....disconnect the defroster tubing to the dash...
Once it is out....
remove the heater core from the unit Not easy as it sounds!!

My Opinion have someone else do it!! Let them Guarantee there work. If the heater core does not last its there problem You may find something in the flat rate manual on what to expect.

Thanks for that info John. It will be a summer
project for me this summer when it is really hot
here in Fl, which is about now. The winters are too nice to work on a vehicle here.

Thanks again,

DC
