Hair-brained idea for blower
I need to go into the dash soon for the old heater core exchange and was wondering if anybody who's been in there thinks it might be possible to stick something like this up against the firewall?
It's 9 inches across and about 3 inches deep.

Exactly. I want to increase the blower output for the a/c to tornado strength.

I think you'd need a leaf blower for that. Then you can run a hose to the air cleaner and supercharge the engine.
