Question about replacing heater channels and floor pans

Post by VampsWagen »

So my question is - Where the heater channels bolt to the floorpans, is that the only place the body is bolted to the pan? And if so, would it be safe for me to cut the old floorpans rather than unbolting them from the heater channels?

They have to be unbolted from the pans.
Hot, humid air is less dense than cooler, drier air. This can allow a golf ball to fly through the air with greater ease, as there won't be as much resistance on the ball.

I am replacing both, pans and channels. I'm not sure how many bolts are rusted in place.

I guess I could just grind the heads off if they are.
