Heater core
I searched for one of these and had no luck. Anyone with any sources? Of course I'd had to have the deluxe heater!

Re: Heater core
Sorry, Dude. I looked and only found this guy who does rebuilds:

Re: Heater core
Excellent Catch! (May not be a perfect replacement, but functional).

Re: Heater core
I don't believe the core is much more complicated to repair than a radiator - where the real cost comes in is the control mechanism rebuild, from what I understand, and that is because they are not replaceable.

Re: Heater core
I checked mine out this morning. Its leaking where the seal is on the control valve. Classic parts has this seal for $16. I guess I will order it and try to replace it myself.
