Does anyone know where I can buy a new aftermarket or reproduction heater core for my 57 3200? I took mine to my local radiator shop and it is full of pinholes. It looks fine but under pressure it looks like a shower head.The shop guy said he couldn't find anyone who carried them. He said he could use my tanks if I could find a core from something else the same size.Maybe some other GM core would fit in it?

he won't find them by application, but if he can't order a core by size .... try a better shop, it's the only possibility and numerous folks here have had it done, including me

Thanks Bill. I wasn't sure what to ask for. If he can't or dosen't want to fix it there is another shop in town I can try.

I found a really good shop that re-cored my heater core for my 49. I know it's really far away from you, but it's Indianapolis Radiator.... I don't have the number handy, but i'm sure you could look it up in the online yellow pages if you get desperate enough. Good luck.
