I'd like to think that there'd be a definite market for that (particularly if you put this together with the shroud, hardware and template for cutting an opening).
But... why did dtek stop with the pro core if folks were snapping them up?
Anyway, yes,
I would buy one from you - if only so I could recommend your product to other folks and not get embarrassed.
I'm currently looking at the 2-224 heater core (71 mercury montego) 6x6x2 with both in+out 5/8". AFAICT this cars available engines were all iron block, so this core's water contact area is
probably copper or copper-alloy. 1/2" ID silicone tubing will go right over 5/8" OD.

Hmmm... maybe those pipes angle too much to the side, even if I cut 'em back to, say 1.5 or 2 inches.
Any thoughts or suggestions?

PS: I
thought I posted in this thread about this core last night, but i was late and I was running on not-much-sleep from the night before so maybe I posted into the wrong thread (d'oh!) or maybe didn't save properly (sigh...)

Looks like maybe there's enough straight run before the bends.
