Hi D,
I don't think there's any choice of 'size' or 'type' because the core's configuration is determined by the size, shape, and location provided for it in the heater air box.
Regards,
Alan

I would rather have another colonoscopy then to have to go through this job again. I've experienced both. The colonoscopy was less painful.

Thanks to all of you for your comments. Here's where we are:
Original core shot--mainly inlet -outlet lines crimped plus core leak. I was able to buy a new core identical to factory specs for $70.00. As for the Colonoscopy reference; I might as well have another one since I'll be in the required position for it while I'm reinstalling heater, heater box, lines , etc!!
