I think I would have to think twice about cutting a hole in the front of the bus. I've had thoughts about installing some sort of air scoop in the front bumper...
Hi; I kept my front ventilation system simple, I mounted two, 2 speed, 6" electric fans over the drivers and co-pilots head, pointed down for air, forward for...
Hi AyJay, I've done the fans just like that as well, and that may just be enough. No sense cutting holes if you don't have to. Who says you can't crack that...
In the Bus Conversion Magazine they show a way to make a vent system and have the air ducted from under the bus. I do have a vent at my left knee on the side...
That's what I done in all my buses. The 2 fans also can blow air onto the windshield to de-fog or de-frost too. Wulf ... From: Allen Johnstad To:...

Congrats! Sounds like you are all set. Have you considered parting out the '78? You can often get more for the parts than for the bus as a whole when the...
I was just wondering if anyone knows how hard it is to replace drivers side windshield wiper assembly? When I turn it on, it goes to the over to the side and...
RS, It's not as bad as you think, however before you go to the expense and trouble of replacing it try this. Open the cover on the left side where the air...
I don't know if there is a difference on newer RTS buses, but in my 79 it's an easy job. Take off the arm, take off the nuts holding the front plate, take off...

I posted some pics of the new exhaust system in place. Wow, 5" 90 elbows are pretty darn expensive. I was able to reuse the elbow that came off the turbo...

WELL!!! How does it sound over the stock setup? Can you feel an increase in power? Looks like it all went together rather nicely.. How much did the 5" bends...
Chris-- I hate to be negative but your exhaust looks like a disaster waiting to happen! That exhaust puts out a lot of heat and is going to overheat the...
