Default blower assembly help

I have a '99 FRC. came across a heater blower assembly that was removed from a 2001 Z06. Can anyone confirm that this will work on my 99 frc?

Thanks
jim

Not sure what the difference is, but the part numbers are not the same for a 99 and an 01.

It should work fine. The accessories are the same and the heads have the same bolt locations on the ends.

Yeah; I missed that one too, but I thought we were talking Supercharger, NOT AC blower

That is the entire HVAC module and I would say yes, as long as both cars are RPO code C60 cars or both cars are RPO CJ2 cars. The C60 cars and the CJ2 cars cannot be interchanged.

If you're trying to do this to change from auto to manual unit, remember that the BCM may have a role to play and need reprogramming to reflect the correct RPO code of the car, especially on the CJ2 (auto) cars, not to mention the wiring harness differences, etc.

EXACTLY! Why are you trying to swap out the entire unit?

That unit is missing all the DAMPER AIR HOSES and damper air control circuits.

The unit above that Bullet Proof posted is the one I have for sale. I have the damper air hoses and control circuits. I took them off and mounted them in my '99 frc in hopes to change it to a digital climate control system. I decided to leave it a manual system because of the problems with the dual climate control system and because the whole wiring harness would have needed to have been changed out. With that said, both units looked identical other than one having a control circuit. I just left the control circuit with hoses mounted under the dash, just in case I decide later on to do the swap,lol. On a manual system, the air hoses come from the back of the AC headunit. The dual climate control has a separate air control circuit.
