RE: [DML] hvac unit

["John Hervey" <john@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Group and Marty,
Thanks for the order and I will have new heater cores shortly. If you need
any kind of rubber I have a great supplier here in Dallas that I can go over
and get whatever you need if I don't already have it. Thick, thin, dense or
denser open cell or closed cell.
I use a non moisture absorbent barrier between the closed cell rubber foam
mounted on the core and between it and the walls of the box.
Try not to use anything that would or might hold moisture because of mold.

Well, it was bound to happen. In the restoration of my car I have had
everything apart for cleaning / restoration with the exception of the
climate unit. Now after a lot of sweat and contortioned limbs I have
it out and apart on my bench. Pulling the engine was easier(IMHO).

What a mess! I had detected a small leak in the evaporator which I
intended to replace. I ordered up John Hervey's kit. After the
difficulty of getting the climate unit out, I ordered a NOS heater
core from DMCH. (I support ALL of the vendors:)

Now I am looking at a bunch of rusted flaps with no foam attached
anywhere. I intend to coat all the metal parts with POR15. I am
wondering what others have done to replace the foam? I was thinking
about using headliner material which has a foam backing, but am
unsure
what the downside might be. I would install it with the clot side
against the metal and the foam out. Opinions?
