Bummer! I’ve had to deal with little leaks because the tower clamps aren’t that good and noticed a few drips under the k20 - I’m hoping the heater core didn’t burst when temps dipped below minus 30. The coolant in the radiator wasn’t frozen so I’m hopeful. Heater core replacement is such a pita.

Yeah it had leaked before. The core connectors may just need to be brazed again once I get it out. But after almost 50 years, it’s probably toast. I’ve had the blazer for 20 of those with no issue with the core thus far.

Been working on my interior lately and after finishing with new door panels turned my attention to mounting the GM accessory 8 Track. Took more effort than I expected with gas pedal interference to overcome, but she's in there now and in the exact right location correctly reusing the left AC control screw as it should etc.
