    and finally - mounted in the FFMetal Firewall Forward

    it fits all around, doesn't hit the engine, or the engine cover, I'll probably have to bend the A/C ports a bit to deflect the A/C hoses away from the engine cover

    I also had to get a Low Pressure Port fitting for the HVAC as the one provided in the kit is a 90-degree fitting which won't work, another $45 later and will mount it near the unit
    I also had to bend the lower port fitting on the compressor to get about a 20 degree angle to clear the headers and engine without running into the 3/4" bar by the ECU as well

    for the A/C to be effective, the plan is to add 2 dash vents, and have 2 vents into the footbox as well - heat can be indirect, but A/C cooling works much better if it can be directed at the driver/passenger
    snagged a few vents from Vintage Air with some chrome accents to better match the SpeedHut gauges

    we've been going hog wild on the dash wiring, and are double/triple checking things - should be able to start mounting and get this beast fired up!
