Heater core replacement

[Patriotblue9779]

Just looking for a good replacement. Seems like everyone says performance radiator just wondering if it’s still a good one to get.

It's a crapshoot at best from my understanding. I tried to find a Denso replacement with no luck.

Here’s my plan when that day comes. Just a bit of lead time.

No. It was much faster. Order confirmation was April 18 and delivery was May 20 of this year.

Awesome. Wasn’t looking forward to being down two months, but I also don’t want to do that job twice.

I bought a made to order Brassworks heater core. It was expensive and took 12-14 weeks IIRC, I have yet to install it because it's a PITA job but the part looks well made and to be of quality. I bought the newer update, apparently their 1st model lacked heating output, this one is said to be revised and OEM output. Check them out during your search, they are a speciality radiator and heater core manufacturer for old vehicles. USA made.

Just ordered one from Brassworks, we’ll see what happens.

keep us updated if you install, as mentioned I have yet to do mine and I'm curious how it works for you. thanks

I thought the general opinion on the brassworks is that they didn't actually transmit much heat?

This was definitely the case on their first production models years ago, they have since improved the design according to their customer service and a few others on the forum.
