O'Reilly Auto Parts heater core

Postby John H. » Wed Aug 14, 2013 9:59 am

Sup everyone,
just wondering if you guys could give me your thoughts on buying
a heater core from O'Reilly for my 85 GTS. Good idea?

I would get one from AutoZone, but I've heard they don't fit. :cry:
Thanks in advance guys!

There's probably one that fits, somewhere, but until an actual picture of their unit is compared to what you've gotta have before you buy it, it's iffy you'll get the right one.

Honestly I'd go pick one up at a Junkyard. I ordered a replacement for my 4AC a while ago and none of the shops had one that matched up. You might need to take a blow torch to it to move one of the pipes that leads in/out. That's what I ended up doing and I haven't had any problems since.
