In my area, the auto salvage yards don't remove them, you have
to pull them from the car yourself. The disadvantage of this is that
you have to do the work, the *advantage* is that you can be careful,
and be assured that there is less damage to the core.
Thanks. I just called around to a few places, and
that's what they told me as well. They also said they charge $40-$45
for them, which seems like a lot considering the avg new AC Delco price
is $119-$129.
I noticed in the archives that Bill Eslick used '86
Caprice cores, but he didn't mention the actual dimensions. I would
worry that what might have fit fine in an RV-6 cowl might not fit an
RV-3 (standard cowl, not BUC).
Cheers,
Rusty
Rusty Look up an auto air conditioning service business and go talk to
them. A small leak makes the cores useless at the pressures the A/C
works at but won't even be noticed by coolant. Bet you can get them for
$5 or less.
