Bravo!

So, I have heat! It needs refining in places but it works! I was pleasantly surprised when I reinstalled the Blower fan that the everything worked correctly. I’m not happy with the fitment of the blower tubing down to the heater boxes. Need to work on that a little or find other tubing. I ended up using some of the original broken tubing to piecemeal it all together. Underneath the bus, I installed the new heat control flaps and hooked up the heater cables. When It came to flexible heater bellow tubes. I pulled some original ones apart. Removed asbestos seals and hand washed the insulation to removed years of dust. Reassembled and reinstalled with new silicon seals on each end. Original bellows are much better quality then repop ones.

Still need to fiddle with a few things like the directional flap box underneath the middle of the bus. Happy to have some warmth!

Heat is always a good thing.

Heat in a bus is overrated, nice exhaust & heat exchangers, way to stick with the og triangle flange units with the F & U pipes! Did you change all that schmangled engine tin?

I'm a freeze baby. Both of my buses have great heat and I wouldn't have it any other way...
