    Well if I was not going to run a heater core I would. But the neck on the heater core was loose it would have leaked so I just did that to be able to run the car I new the engine was coming back out so a have the motor out and in the middle of rebuild and the heater core is out wait on the new one

    However, I did do away with the power steering that cleaned it up a lot and there’s more room on the drivers side now cleaning and repainting now :D
