Diverter Valve

Does anyone know where I can find a diverter valve for the heater control for a 84 Z28 with V8 and air.

Re: Diverter Valve

A bigger question might be does anybody know where to get a reliable one. In the last 10 years I am on my 5th diverter (heater control valve) and it is now leaking.. My factory original was mostly metal.. Since then they have all been plastic and either leak or the pipe collapses under heat...

They are made by Everco, Four Seasons and Murray... I should have been tracking the ones I bought to see what worked best in the past and if I actually tried all three but didn't. Anybody know which one is the best reliability..???..
