hey, how do they make that oval tubing from the intercooler to the throttle body. Is it round tubing that has been ovalized or what?

I saw it at Bowling Green last year. Im friends with the owner, I'll ask him to make sure....but unless I was dreaming when we were talking about it, I believe he told me the AC compressor was relocated down near the power steering pump.

A/C IS NOT PRESENT at white Callaway - are all imaginations....

We look together on a photo:

The A/C-tube - IS ABSENT !

Lower installing A/C in C4-vette - IS IMPOSSIBLE

Maybe in your infinite wisdom you should call the owner and inform him that the cold air that blows out the vent is not from AC.
