Hi myk,
My understanding is that:
Non-a/c cars have a 3 speed blower and the blower is always on low regardless of the mode selection.
On a/c cars the blower has 4 speeds and the blower is only off when the left side mode selector is in the off position.
Regards,
Alan

I'd be interested in hearing if other non-a/c cars differ from this.

Hi HF,
The switch on my 71 non a/c car has FOUR positions... off, low, medium, high... I never noticed the discrepancy with the owner's manual.
Is it possible that the a/c cars have a switch with FOUR speeds... low, low/medium, high/medium, and high????

What's the possibility the 71 manual just wasn't updated from the 1970 operation?

Heat/ac fan on my 74 coupe Wil not run on high speed.
Recently installed new heat and ac controls, fan motor, resistor and fan switch. The fan will not run on the high speed setting. Is there something I am overlooking? 2vetteowner

Check the fuse first!
There is a separate in line fuse for the "High" position, it's under the left fender near the M/C.
