Best Heatercore?

NiKnight · 07-16-2003, 08:33 PM

I was thinking about a 89 Camaro Heater Core, but are there any better ones, posobly pre soldered?

you could buy a bigger one and it would be better. the best heatercore is usually one that fits where you want it to go. i dont know any watercooling sites in japan so i wouldnt know where to get a pre soldered heatercore but im sure there are radiator shops or fabrication shops that will solder your barbs on for you. it shouldnt cost much either.

I'd suggest looking for a single pass design with the inle/outlets on diagonal corners, to equalize flow in all the tubes.

Chevy made a really nice one for the 72 pickups that had A/C in them.
