The cab that I am working on is a 1964 that has the blower motor coming through the fire wall and the heater core pipes running vertical. I'm curious if anybody has used a 1965 heater box instead. I know the blower motor hole will have to be welded shut and the heater core holes will have to be redone to be horizontal. Is there anything other than that needs to be done? Any information and images are welcome.
Thanks,
Matt

The air inlet on the passenger side kick panel is a different shape, too.

Re: Heater Box Swap
Thank you Sportinlife for your input. That shouldn't be that big of deal since I have the plastic air inlet that was with the 65 box.
So from what it seems like all I have to do is weld some holes shut and make new holes using a template from what I am gathering.

MR.Jones - Thank you for those measurements.
However I am looking for the measurements for the heater core that has the horizontal outlets not the vertical ones.
