oh Captain! that's just simply too easy a solution! well, on paper anyway...
lmc has them at 70-80 bux us .. doesn't seem so bad right? well, that's actually closer to 110 cdn after conversion, and related fees.. not to mention another thirty bux shipping up here to canada. so now i'm looking at 140 bux...
for that kind of money I could prolly pay a rad shop to refurbish and extend the piping any way I'd like...
I believe I replaced that heater core around 5 or so years ago, and I've been using that same ugly but functional setup since then... I'd have to go back to my reciept pile, but either Napa or LMC placed that correct size but wrong fitting heater core in my hands... I dunno why I didn't fight to get the correct one, but I'm stuck with it now, until it fails...completely...
