RE: Heater Core replacment ????
350.... I could let you know how it goes.... something like this........ AAAARRRRRGGGGGG!!!!!!! LOL Seriously, I think I removed like 50 screws, loosened the console but don't have it all the way out cuz the E-brake. Now my whole dash is like a limp noodle. I feel sick! I don't think my dash will ever be the same. I haven't even got to the core yet. Right now I"m at the air box but I think I need to undo the box from the firewall to get to the core. UUUUGGGHHHHHHH. I hope no one ever has to do this.

Ok. After a good nights rest and a trip to the library things aren't as bleak. Turned out I was only a few screws from having the core out. I have it out now. Got a new one and am going to be putting it in as soon as I'm off here. I may have taken out more screws than needed. I'll get back on later tonight and give an update!

Well, it all works and everything is back where it should be. 350.... if you lived near by I would help you on a Sat. Now that I have done one AND know what I'm looking for it's not too bad. Right now I would guess it would take about 3 hours to do the job. You could do it faster but if you have the time it saves the headache.

LOL!! Come on over to my pit area for the fastest turn around time ever!! Seriously thou, it really didn't take that much time. I'm trying to add up the actual time working on it. An hour Tuesday night taking the dash loose, an hour Wednesday night removing the core and about two hours Friday putting everything back together. If you have a nice garage out of the stinking sun, it could be changed in comfort in about 4 hours or even quicker. I took my time and waited til evening seeing I didn't have the nice garage and it was a blast funace during the day. Only problem now............ My steering wheel is on the wrong side... JK
