    Hello. I have to replace the heater core on my 69 gs. Any brands to use or steer away from? My car has ac and i am looking for a direct non complicated change out. Thanks for any insight.

    If you have a radiator shop near you, bring them your Harrison core. They'll be able to re-core it.

    The made in Mexico/China crap is just that - crap. Speaking of which, it's a crap job, that no one wants to do once, nevermind twice.

    In the event you do have a shop near you and need a re-core, make sure they use the made in America high efficiency Maine Auto Radiator cores. You won't regret it.

    I’ll second that! Many parts places and catalogs will have a picture showing a copper unit. They may even still show copper in their text or buyer’s guide. They’re likely not. Also, warranties cost them almost nothing but are useless when you’re cleaning the mess and doing the work (again). Watch out for the Guarantee Fairy…
