As far as the AC hose crimps, yes the serrated style is the more modern crimp that can handle more PSI. The original circular style crimp is no longer available as far as I know....

I dont consider my car "correct" but I tried to make it "stock looking"as possible.

Looking over your pics I do notice that you dont have the "correct" valve cover studs on the front & rear lower positions...you have bolts all around.

Also, hard to see in the pics but do you have the special battery cable clamp that bolts to the back of the compressor bracket? (circled in the pic)

Also for 69 440 with AC the throttle return spring should be green...

Ahhhh...I am glad you mentioned the clip for the battery cable that mounts to the back of the compressor. I do have it!! But need to install it. I noticed I was missing that but forgot to install. Will get that installed before I forget again.
I had the correct studs in the valve covers before I had the engine rebuilt!! Damn, I guess the engine rebuilder did not put them back. I was so happy to have had those and survived all these years. Thanks for pointing that out. Another fix🤔.

Ok, I need a little help with these ac heater box vacuum lines. Unfortunately, I did not take these off. If I did I would have a ton of pics. I have read the FSM and have got a few clues but really need to understand where the red stripe hose with the “T” goes and where the red hose goes in relation to the top or bottom of the actuator. Or any clues you guys may have.
A12Pilot has been a ton of help with this project....where you been???....RJS 6T9Chrgr you guys have spring on the scene lately with a great round of info. Thanks so much guys super helpful to this novice Mopar guy!!!👍👍😁

Yes, very. After I posted the question I started googling and ran across a thread with one of these pictures. The picture with the time delay wires connected is very helpful.
Thanks very much!

Yep all over it. That is where I found that one pic that you posted earlier...in a thread there. Great site and good guys...
