This video was not only a perfect tutorial but was easy to watch. A lot of people on TH-cam spend too much time with the chit-chat. I was honestly thinking that our '81 Camaro would never have A/C but after watching your video I'm not even stressing about installing the system. If fact, I'm about to order the kit now. Thanks for breaking it down and showing us all how it's done. Good job!
Awesome! Glad I was able to help you out and don't forget to subscribe
I posted a year ago that I was ordering my Vintage Air system... well, the transmission went out in my truck, so that took priority. I have now ordered it, and it will be here around the middle of January! I just rewatched this video, and I am pumped to finally get this done. Man, thanks again for the video! I'll have it playing throughout the entire install!! Great tutorial! 👍
THE Best Installation Video on TH-cam. Vintage Airs Installation Videos aren't this good. Great job Sir.

In the process of putting Vintage Air in my 69 Camaro... Its not bad at all. But I can tell you this is THE Best Installation Video on TH-cam. Vintage Airs Installation Videos aren't this good. Great job Sir.
1969Scooch thank u
Agreed💯
I'm not a comment type of guy but feel that I should here. This video was as great as it was thorough. Nice job, many of us appreciate it!
Thank you for taking the time to comment
You make it look deceptively easy! I'll bet that this job took several days!!
It wasn't too bad lol took couple days due to filming..thanks for watching and don't forget to subscribe 😉
Vintage Air should pay you for this video.
Super Duty 455 lol thanks
yeah, good point
@@klowny1969 hey klown what's your email I want to contact you about installing this kit on my 3rd gen
Dude, this video is awesome! However, it's helped me come to the conclusion that I should just hire someone to do this for me. haha! Thanks!
dafontenot lol thanks for watching and commenting
It's done the opposite for me! Instead of paying $1500 for someone to do it, I'm now sure I can do it myself!!
Same here- I’m more of a red green mechanic with duct tape. I don’t think it would work on this project
What's a good number for install cost?
You probably dont give a shit but does someone know of a method to log back into an Instagram account..?
I was dumb forgot my password. I would appreciate any help you can offer me.
Best video I've seen yet on installing the Vintage Air system. I started the install today on my 1985 Winnebago motorhome with the universal kit. I'll be watching this tutorial multiple times as I go through the install process. Great job and and Thanks!
Awesome..good luck with the install and thanks for watching..please don't forget to subscribe
Fantastic job to show how easy it actually can be done by the average person . Cheers buddy.

Excellent videos Klowny! I just completed putting Vintage Air, electric fan, and a Holley Sniper on an 81 Camaro and I continued to come back to your videos for reference since it’s basically the same car.....Thanks man!!!

You have no idea how much this video helped me, I was looking everywhere to see how to instal the brackets
Awesome..dont forget to subscribe!
My challengers install seems difficult but in different ways. Great video. I think any of these installs takes some balls, but then again thats part of owning these cars.
Great job brother, has to be one of the best and most in depth videos on doing this.
Michael Johnson thank you sir
Honestly most complete video I've seen on TH-cam. Great job..

Nice very nice clean install, I've only had my engine and trans rebuilt so far can't wait for wiring and suspension then I can at least drive it as I do this and that 70 RS. good inspiration thanks.
Awesome..good luck with the 70!! Also dont forget to subscribe..thanks!!
Awsome job and so far the best and most complete video on how to do "a job"...!!! Now my turn, waiting for the kit for my 1979 Corvette (using a 1976 one since they do not make one for the 79. Wish me luck!). :D
Enrico Dubaiese thank u..good luck with your install!
I am in the process of installing vintage air in my 1970 Camaro. A lot of the same steps. They did change the bracket that you notched for the heater hose that no longer needs to be fabricated.
Excellent demonstration video, thank you for sharing!!!
Jeff G thanks for watching
Really good video. Its about time someone has put an in depth instructional video on.
tamiya frog thanks for watching and commenting
Beautiful install Manny. Looked just like a factory job when done. That kit you used was really nice!
Fireship1 thank you..vintage is air is the best kit in the business..they make awesome stuff..thanks for stopping by
Agreed, very detailed and QUALITY video shots. Better than most manufactures ! Why not paint the compressor brackets 100% ? Also, how much better is this complete system vs. the factory A/C set up when it was working ? Lots of folks do away with the R4 compressor replacing it with the SD-508 and get good results in just that.
Another great video , learned a bit by watching them .
awesome..thanks for watching
Thanks for the video. It’s still relevant. We are restoring a 1980 Firebird and used your video for the removal of the old system. The camaro and Firebird are close but not exact. Again thanks for the video.
glad i was able to help you out..dont forget to subscribe
this video is exactly what i needed, a step by step process. No fluff, no watching the camera swing from here to there. Thank you Sir!!!!
Thanks for watching..also check out the link in my description for my apparel
This video helped me more than vintage air video
thank you..dont forget to mention that to vintage air lol
*I am hoping to install one of these kits in my 1976 Camaro one day.*
I have a 1975
What does this cost if I wanted it done by a mechanic?
Great video man! I got a lot of info from your video I was needing. Job well done sir!
TypeLT76 thanks for watching
Thanks for the info, pretty in-depth on hooking up the Trenary switch

Lane Blount good luck
I have used that compressor in my 95 chevy 2500 when the pancake R4 went out it blows 35F!!! I want to do something like this but with an underdash ac evaporator from back when.
Sir you really must to have manual dexterity to be able to do so many of the exacting procedures you did here. You are a wizard a true star!!

Hey Klowny awesome video! You covered everything in awesome detail. One question, did you have to install a throttle stop solenoid on that carb to kick it up at idle when the compressor engages? I’m doing a similar install on a truck that had AC but the carb is aftermarket.
Excellent... You're detail oriented like I am.
Thank u..thanks for watching
Outstanding video

Thanks for this video. I have factory air but it isn't working right now. This looks totally doable in my driveway.
yes it does..thanks for watching..dont forget to subscribe and hit that bell
Absolutely awesome video! I am in process of building my 72 Camaro dash by 3d modelling and printing and AC would be nice addition.. the old AC has still some parts, but most is gone when former owned did a LS1 swap. Also the fans have now no power and so on.. so new AC would be great.. I am so happy I saw this video, because answered so many questions I had! Only problem I might have is the new engine and how to fit the new AC to it. If yo have any tips or info on that, please share!
I wish you were here in Western Australia. I would love to get you to install my vintage air! I got the compact 2 kit and it's universal.. but because of that you pretty much have no info on anything besides your excellent tutorial. Thanks.
Lol..sorry kind of too far haha..thanks for watching..dont forget to subscribe
Great video! Really helped me get my system installed. One question though, do you know the part number for that top radiator hose? Thanks!

Great detailed job i watched the whole video and I dont even have a camaro
Thank you..don't forget to subscribe
On your radiator what did you use to plug the port that's not being used? I have a champion radiator on the way.
nice video..did you get the kit for factory AC camaro? did the kit come with the lap vents or was that extra?
This video is so helpful. Almost got my system completely installed baby! One question...is a two groove power steering pulley required or can you make it work with one groove and just route the compressor belt straight to the crank and bypass the PS puley? My PS setup just has a single groove - already ordered the 3-groove crankshaft pulley.
Job done...blowing ice cold baby! Thanks again for this...never would have tried on my own without this video. Took me a couple of months solo ops. Learned a lot in the process. Two groove PS pulley is 100% needed in addition to 3 groove crank pulley for any of those wondering.
I had a battery jump out of it's cradle into the Power wires to the compressor and after I fixed the cut wires that the battery cut the compressor wont turn on and I can't see a in line fuse anywhere to the light blue wire that go to the dry, could you give me a good guess what may have shorted out ? I had a man install it and he went out of business. PS... I did how ever run a power wire to the compressor via a toggle switch, is that a bad idea ?
Great Video!!!!! I have not watched any of your other videos, but I'd have to guess you do a great job on all of them by this one. What did the entire system cost?
Thank you sir..i don't remember this was a while back for a customer..prices should be on vintageair.com
great job nice to have a/c
thank you for watching..AC is the best!
Solid video. I’ll probably be doing the same shortly to avoid trying to make the old stuff work. Only question is how loud is the blower fan since it’s now inside the car?
Not loud at all..dont forget to subscribe..thanks
Nice video thanks for posting it. How do you like that Milwaulkee?
Great Video just a little curious about how much silicone was used? I like 3M Strip Caulk personally
dont remember..just make sure u put a good size bead around it thats all
Please consider making a video of you installing a vintage system in your third gen as no one else has. There is no dedicated kit but it would be nice to see a system modded to work in a third gen.
That is something that I might do..I need to contact vintage air
Great video. Having just installed a vintage air unit in a Factory5 Daytona coupe, I recognized a lot of the bits and pieces... but how did you keep your hands so clean?
im a pre-madonna :)
Great video man! I have a 1975 Camaro and the guy that I bought it from removed everything for the AC away from under the hood. I was wondering would it be cheaper to just buy the compressor and condenser from autozone since I still have the ac switches on the inside of the car?
Personally I like vintage air because it cleans up the firewall alot..as far as price, you will have to price out the parts u need vs the vintage air unit..thanks for watching
klowny1969 thanks man
Awesome!
Edgr Rickett thanks for watching
Hey my brother I'm doing the same install right now. I know it's been awhile but can you tell me about how many feet of heater hose you needed to do this install. Thank you very much
Hey..I really dont remember..I just take a measuring tape and estimate..thanks for watching
18 feet for this install he says ..
It was great
How much difference did you have in terms of ambient temperature, humidity, traffic flow, and so on?
Was the cooling value of the new system much higher, or only slightly increased?
How much was the amount of wind blowing from the air ducts ?
Is the amount of wind blowing from the air ductss much higher than before?
Was just considering this system, did the lap vents come with the kit? Good job!
Paul Bouchier thanks..no the customer bought them himself
Good job klowny...forgot to take out the engine and trans too....lol
I know right lol thanks for watching and commenting and don't forget to subscribe
nice work want to put one of these systems in my 68 Chevelle but it wasnt a AC car is that ok
yeah thats fine
