So I did some more checking yesterday and found four things.

1. An orange vacuum line was pinched between the temp blent actuator and it's mount completely cutting off vacuum flow. Done at the factory since no one has done A/C work until now.
2. I found a vacuum connection under the driver side dash that was hissing slightly
(6 lines in and out).
3. The air switches from dash vents to floor under acceleration.
4. A vacuum controlled door switch with green and red vacuum lines controls air movement from dash to floor.

Things I was able to fix last night were:
1. Vacuum leak at connection.
2. Removed pinched vac line and attempt to open allowing vacuum to flow.

After repairs the a/c blows much cooler now but still moves from dash to floor under acceleration. I was not able to trace down the orange vacuum line to know what this controls. I plan on repairing tonight but not sure how this will help.

I suspect a vacuum leak where green and red vacuum lines go...does this sound right or am I missing something?

Thanks for the help
Tim
