ok so iv been lookin for a heater core for my 92 camaro but every where i go the heater core tubes r bent way differnt than then the old ones so i was wondering from all u guys that have replace ur heater cores befor where did u go to get your cores cause i just cant seem to find the right core

 

ya, there's been a lot of posts on this (keeping my fingers crossed that this doesn't happen). one guy even heated the tubes and then bent them. did you check at a GM parts place?

 

ya i know theres been alot of posts about this but as i look at them no one really says where they got there parts. and no i havent check the gm parts place ill have to look

 

Parts I don't want to replace twice I get from Carquest or Napa with success - that's where I got my heater core at, but that was last year.

 

.....You might want to snap a Poloroid and draw up a to size schematic to bring with you to your higher end parts store.

Just another thought; are you sure you've diagnosed correctly? It is leaking and you're not just dealing with a 'no-heat' problem? (I just had to use a little water pressure to blow out a blockage in mine & it's worked great since [even though I keep my cooling system squeeky clean and fresh]) Nitro

 

i know it is the core leakin cause i found i had to replace it cause there was a big pudle of engine coolent on my floor

 

....Is there NOT a part on our F-bodies that dosn't need to be replaced by 150k miles????? I feel for you. If it was summer you could just bypass the thing until you get more time to run the correct part down.....

ya but if it was summer i would have time to work with it cause i wouldnt have school so i would have more time plus i have to work out side so it would be better. but this isnt really a time ritical thing cause the car is no longer a daily driver for now im fixin the few problems it has now so when i get my drivers licence it will b a good daily driver again.also my car has over 288,000 miles on it and most of the parts are holdin up well

 

ok i give up the onley place i could find that has the part that i know will work is the dealership i just didnt want to go there cause they want 100 somthin as where everywhere else its onley 30 but but im tired of looking i just want to get my car put back togeather and driving again so im gana suck it up and pay the extra 70 somthin bucks.(the onley reson i have a problem with that much more money is im onley 14 and dont have a job so 100 bucks is alot and i really didnt want to spend that much but owell)

 

I bought my heater core from Autozone for around $30. The tubes lined up just like the original for me, once I got everything in place. It was a pain getting everything in position, but once I had it it slipped right through the holes in the firewall.
