I have converted the heater core to accept 2 heater elements that will run on 144 volts and reinstalled into the heater box. While in the heater box I sealed up all the holes from the Air conditioning condenser.
I have removed the instrument cluster and ordered a shunt, and some digital meters to install where the old gas and temp guages were located. While the dash was out I disabled the A/C switch for the compressor in the heater control in the defrost position, I will be using the A/C switch to turn the heating elements on and off and didn't want to run the heat on defrost unless switched on.
I made some mock ups of the batteries with cardboard to test fit the batteries and sorted out where and how the batteries will be mounted.
An old electrical box will house the electronic parts and will fit over the drive motor, I purchased a heat sink and some fans to keep the controller cool and happy. I will probably be mounting it on top of the box for better cooling.
I have made a vacuum resevoir from PVC plumbing parts and it will hold about 2.2 liters of vacuum and will be mounted under the hood near the passenger side fender.
