I need that guy---the one that covered up his heater box openings with gaskets.
The openings in the heater box for the heater core's tubes to poke through, those openings are much larger than necessary. Someone fixed that, I think with a master cylinder gasket.
I bought a set at Advance Auto today but the ones I bought are just a little bit too narrow. Would the guy that suggested that tell me what gaskets he bought? Did anyone else fix this problem and how did you do it? |

Use black closed cell foam , or many of the vendors sell the "seals" to fit over the heater core tubes .made from black closed cell foam .

What vendor then? I looked on both GMCPauls and Classic Heartbeat to no avail.

Heineken and a few shots of local spring water could just ruin my reputation !
