68 camaro blower motor with AC
« on: December 19, 2016, 11:01:40 PM »
I daily drive my 68 camaro. I am in need of a squirrel cage for the blower motor with AC. The center aluminum hub had come loose and was noisy. I replaced the motor, thinking it was the source of the noise. When I transferred the cage I found the center hub loose. So I peened it to tighten it. I must have gotten it out of balance. I really don't want to do the job again without all the correct parts.
 I have not found a vendor with a blower cage for an AC car. Some vendors say the  67-81 non ac is the same as the 67-9 ac blower motor/ cage.
  Can anyone confirm the difference in blower motors or squirrel cages between ac and non ac cars?
 Can I use a motor/ squirrel cage from a different vehicle?

With ac original blower motor #4914916 fan #3144684. With out ac blower #4914901 fan# 3905776. GM later on superceded fan 3144684 to 3095776. Ac fan motors had a hole for cooling hose non ac cars did not have hole in motor. I would look for 64-71 Chevrolet for fan with  ac. Hope this helps.

Contact THIS GUY and see if he still has it. It was on ebay back in November with no bidders.

Thanks, awesome information.
  Interesting the 684 fan for AC was replaced with the 776 fan originally meant for non AC cars.

When it comes to blower motors, GM made a one size fits all, or close to this statement. There are a bunch of GM cars from that era that have the same motor and I assume squirrel cage according to my Hollander interchange manual. PM me if you want one of these cages...pretty sure I have what you need.

FWIW, when I took mine apart to clean it up it had a metal clip or two on the hamster wheel blades, presumably to balance the thing, like balancing a wheel.  This is a C60 A/C car.
