Re: Can I eliminate heater hose couplers on firewall.
The heater core is aluminum.
I'd be worried about galvanic corrosion between the Aluminum and Stainless. I would think that 6063 aluminum would be a good material for these fittings but you can't beat just jamming the hose over the end of the heater tube without the fitting.
