Hi, fellow rotary enthusiasts.....I am = confused=20 regarding radiator versus evaporator cores.  
 
Welcome to the club :-)
 
I have found an evap. core that = measures 9 x=20 13 1/2 x 4 5/8" thick. I believe that comes out to a total area of = around=20 561.  
 

Here are dimensions that I measured from = one of Ed's=20 old cores. 

 

 Overall=20 dimensions- 13.5” x 9” x 3-5/8” =20

Core dimensions- =20 10.5” x 9” x = 3-5/8”

Volume=20 of water it will hold- 39 oz.  
 
As you can see, the = core is 3=20 inches narrower than the outside dimension, so if you were quoting = outside=20 dimensions, your core would likely end up being about 437. =20  
 
 
I don't know if the 5/8" = inlet/outlet tubes=20 would be too restrictive to flow compared to a radiator that would be = made with=20 1" NPT inlet/outlets?   
 
5/8" ID (if that's what you meant) might work, = but it will=20 be on the small side.  For reference, some folks are using AN-12 = hose I=20 believe, and that would measure pretty close to 5/8" ID.  Believe = it or=20 not, measuring the actual ID of an AN-12 hose was on my list of things = to do=20 today.  I have measurements for most other=20 sizes.  
 
Rusty (really gotta go=20 now)
