Title: Smiths 'Beehive' heater fittings for 57 Chev Post by: johnonetrillion on March 10, 2010, 03:12:13 PM Hello!
Well, I used to won a nice 62 EJ. Actually I had two of them. But this question is about a 57 Chev to be fitted with a Smiths 'Beehive' heater. I have the heater all restored etc. and have figured out where I want to mount it. But now I am wondering what sort of fixtures I should use in hooking it all up to look right for the times. It looks like we need some sort of 3/4" 90˚ elbow join to connect into the rubber fittings on the heater body. And then some heater hose, preferably with GM markings on it. And standard wire clamps to close it all together. (Will use the same sort of elbow joins to connect the hose to the duct unit under the dash. Any tips?
