Well if it was not dependent on microsloth frontpage extentions, I would gladly host. :shrug:

BTW the site works for me.

Great site. I love it!

A question about the 2-308

That is just the fin dimension correct? I just want to double check.

So that is 4 fans on each side too? whoa :evilaugh:

All the heater cores in there are measuring fin area only.

Having a buddy that owns a NAPA store I figured I'd go poke around and see what they had. Well, if any of you U.S.guys have a NAPA store close go there to look. Their catalog lists so many HC's with sizes and tube sizes it was overwhelming. Found some Jeep HC's that were perfect size but the one I wanted there was only one available in the country :( I wound up with a '77 Impala with A/C for 17.50 @ Auto Zone. 14cmx30cmx5cm tanks included.
The NAPA parts book is a great resource if you have a NAPA store.

One thing I found with my Impala HC I've never seen mentioned anywhere so I thought I'd bring it up as I think it's somewhat common to HC's.
The Impala HC comes with a nylon 1/4" ID flow restrictor inserted into the 5/8 tube. Was down in the tube far enough that until I cut the tubes down to solder on fittings did I finally notice it. Not good. With an easy-out it came out very easily and now the HC has what feels like zero resistance to air passing through.

Picked up a 2-275 Thanks to this Heatercore Database

too bad its down...

is the site going to come back up?? :confused:

A useful site for us europeans looking for heater cores was Nissens. You have to register and log in to search for heatercores, but it's worth the hassle.

Click on Catalogue in the top menu. Click on new login to create your account.

Once that's done go back to the Catalogue page and log in. Click on Radiators. Click on Heaters.

Select make and model and a list should appear at the bottom. Click on the link on the left in the list for a popup listing the details of that core.

[Edit: Thanks pauldenton, fixed the link!]

link is wrong - you mean this i think ;)
Nissens

had a look and looks good -
seem to be able to give v little info when you register, which was nice...

has the database moved again?

Ok, I can see that the database is not accessible.

Ya'll give me a couple of days, and I'll make an Excel file available. I'll try to put up the MS Access file as well.

beat ya to it. Attached is a zip with two excel spreadsheets; one's a dimensions sheet, the other's a car model sheet. I'm not sure who created them, but I can claim credit for neither.

The first one's from me ;) the second file is an extract from A's DB.

So is there any way to get it back up? Do you need more hosting, or something along those lines?

If someone can take that info and turn it into a website ready format I can host it. Not much I can do with an XLS file though....

if i know what format you want that info in...
i can do a mail merge into html code and you can host that...
just need to know how u want it...
i can put the whole spreadsheet out as html table format if you like

Whatever format will show up. html is fine.

ok this is waht i have for a rough start
HTML based list Still needs work(a Lot)

does anyone have the pictures of the heater cores?
I can link them to the html page so we can get some visual idea how they hook up.

edit updated link

That is looking good. Pics would be nice.

jaydee: check your PMs :)

Very weird, I replied to yours and others PM's days ago. Non of them went through. Just replied again. :)

Since it came up, here's a source for heatercores:
http://www.partsamerica.com/

Also, in my area (Texas), there's:
Napa: http://www.napaonline.com
O'Reilley: http://www.oreillyauto.com
Autozone: http://www.autozone.com

and more I'm sure.

Anyone have this database of heater cores?
The link is no longer any good.
It would be ashamed for it to be lost forever.

If you have the zip file let me know and perhaps you can email it to me and I'll post the zip file on a web page for everyone. Thanks!

The zip file above is still good.

anyone know where i can find a triple heatercore approx. the size of a Thermochill 120.3??

do they even exist?


or should i not even bother looking and stick with the 120.3 radiator?

The zip file doesn't seem to work for me and the original links are all down. :(

The Zip file works just fine for me.

Here it is again:

hmm its saying that the zip is corrupt for me

Re: Online Database for Heatercores: Ben
 

Anyway to get that database now?

One thing is a excel document containing all the specifications, another one is to have pictures of the cores. That gives a lot better impression whether it's the heatercore you seek or not.

So mirror! :D

Re: Online Database for Heatercores: Ben
 

ill mirror it, just someone send it to me.
