Rick Bosak's Journal

I love driving in the fall with the top down windows up and the heater on full. Of course in the summer I don’t want any more heat in the cockpit. I do have a valve to shut off water to the coil but to stop the air flow I have been putting a piece of rubber sheet between the blower and the coil. That required a screw driver and 15 contortion minutes. So I drew up some plans and sent them off to SendCutSend to make three aluminum parts for a little sliding door that will open or close off the airflow. This door sits under the blower which is located over the coil in the firewall. I now just insert or remove the sliding door. Easy peasy. Now I’m ready for heat or not as the weather changes. If you need fabrication parts I highly recommend SendCutSend. My three parts were a little over $30 delivered.
