engine / wiring harness swap question.

I am working on a /6 non a/c 1975 gold duster. My parts car is a /6 1975 a/c gold duster. I am swapping the engine into the non a/c car. Heres my question. I want to swap the a/c cars wiring harness into the non a/c car during the swap as its in GREAT shape. What kind of issues might i run into , as far as im aware, the only difference ld b e the possibility of having more connectors than I need?? But other than that it should be a straight swap out if im not mistaken.... what about the inside harnesses?

Im also taking the dash its self out of the A/C car, and putting it into the n on A/C car as well, any issues there? Other that the obvious stuff that is ( different heater controls... etc....?
Thanks in advance folks.

It's a lot of work Are you planning to put the air in the car ? The wiring should work fine. With the dash there may be differences between the air and non air firewall So you may need to add some holes to the firewall for the extra air cond parts

No, im not planning on using the air, just the dash out of that car, as its in MUCH better shape.

I'm not really sure. The only issues you should run into are any differences directly associated with the AC. Is the two blower motor connections the same?

Might be some differences right at the AC dash control. I could see you might have to "morph" one or two of the old non AC connectors onto the harness for the control.

Should be a simple change.

You have a shop manual?
