Default BB heater box

Is a 69 Nova BB heater box (both inside and outside parts) the same for a 69 Camaro BB?

The outside is. The inside I am not 100% sure because of heater control cable position differences between Nova/Camaro and things like that but I do know that there are 2 different styles. One is for console cars and the other is for non console cars. I'm sure someone else can fill in the rest.

I believe the inside is the same as well but the cables are probably different. I hope this helps.

From what I've seen, the inside heater box and heater control cables are the same between a 69 Camaro and 69 Nova. The same applies to the box cover on the firewall.

Regarding console or non-console, there is a difference in the plastic ducts that are screwed to the box.

From what I know, there are no differences in the heater control postions between the Nova and Camaro, the dash units were the same, as was the postion of the heater controls...at least when comparing 69-74 Nova to 69 Camaro. Heater boxes should be a direct interchange between these years.

I agree with that Brandon.. I see no difference other than vent style. But a big block box will only house a B/B heater core. The inside dimensions are different..BKH
